With the discipline of a scholar and the insight of a poet, Bobby Bridger has created a biography that is more than biography. Buffalo Bill Cody was linked with Plains Indians people by friendship and warfare, by shared preferences and experiences, and by a sense of partnership and common destiny. This is a look into the soul of a people and of a man who was a medium for their cultural survival.”
Dr. Paul Fees,Former Senior Curator of the Buffalo Bill Historical Center, Cody, Wyoming
* “...he [Bridger] describes better than any author I’ve read how the Trans-Missouri region gave birth to Indian mythology...’Buffalo Bill and Sitting Bull’ may be the definitive work on the creation of white and Plains Indian culture...an incredible achievement that both the general reader and scholar should read.” Doris R. Meredith, editor, Western Writers of America’s Round-Up Magazine
“Bobby Bridger witnessed it all. His memoir reads like an epic poem itself as he crosses paths with the icons of modern American music, art, literature, family, and culture -from the self-absorbed days of the early 1970s to today’s legendary Native American keepers of the flame- riding on his survival skills and a generation’s worth of wanderlust, all the while sculpting his own unique artistic expression via the winds of fate, desire, synchronicity, and a huge dose of providence.” Eliza Gilkyson
“Exploring both the heart of the American music industry and its creative hinterlands, “Bridger” chronicles an artistic journey filled with possibility and innovation, challenges and risks. The development of Bobby Bridger’s ethical commitment to his music and painting is nothing short of inspiring, and he tells the tale through a self-reflection as honest and creative as the new forms he has crafted in his art and his career. Bridger is a national treasure. This book explains how and why.” Philip J. Deloria, author of “Playing Indian”, and “Indians in Unexpected Places”
Using a deft touch and some sly humor, Bridger entertains his readers with a shrewd analysis of the underlying themes played out in the American West.”
Carol Berry, Indian Country Today
“Bridger’s book is a gift to all who love the American West. What they may find is that the West they love is a mythology that tells them more about their human selves -who they are- than the place they love. Any book that can do that is worth reading.”
Dr. Daniel Wildcat, Haskel Indian Nations University

What came aimed directly at my heart was pure magic. A magic superseding words and tunes, an invocation of deep feeling…This is the magic of Bobby Bridger’s A Ballad of the West…a magic that suggests the richest storied fleece we still have to discover lies in the yet unplumbed psychic resources of America today.
Frank Waters, Author, The Man Who Killed the Deer, The Book of the Hopi
I sincerely doubt that anyone will so completely capture the spirit of time and place as Bobby Bridger has done in A Ballad of the West. It is a triumph of time and space as all spiritual synthesis must be…a tour de force of the western experience.
Vine Deloria, Jr., author, Custer Died For Your Sins, God is Red, and Red Earth, White Lies
It blends history, music, poetry and fundamental values. Most important, it tells us something of who we are and how we got here.
