The Hunting Of The Buffalo by E. Douglas Branch is a historical account of the American bison, commonly known as the buffalo, and its near-extinction in the late 19th century. The book explores the history of the buffalo from its importance to Native American tribes to its role in the expansion of the American West. The author delves into the commercial hunting of the buffalo for its hides and the impact this had on the species. Branch also examines the role of government policies and their effect on the buffalo population, including the establishment of national parks and the protection of the remaining buffalo herds. The book provides a comprehensive look at the history of the buffalo and its significance to American culture and history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the American West or the conservation of endangered species.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
