Ballie Buck is a legend in Montana.  Everyone who talks of the days of the Old West knows about Ballie Buck, part Native American but always pure cowboy.  Through her collection of carefully researched stories and sketches, Helen Parsons Neilson brings us an authentic glimpse of this legend that the artist, Charlie Russell, made distinctly unique when he said, "That's one Indian that knows what the cow said to the calf."
