    Three examples are: _The English Sportsman in the Western
    Prairies_, by the Hon. Grantley F. Berkeley, London, 1861;
    _Travels in the Interior of North America, 1833-1834_, by
    Maximilian, Prince of Wied (original edition, 1843), included
    in that "incomparable storehouse of buffalo lore from early
    eye-witnesses," _Early Western Travels_, edited by Reuben Gold
    Thwaites; George Catlin's _Letters and Notes on the Manners,
    Customs and Conditions of the North American Indians_, London,
    1841.

    Three aspects of the buffalo stand out: the natural history of
    the great American animal; the interrelationship between
    Indian and buffalo; the white hunter--and exterminator.
