As with many men of that day, Nichols' formal education was lacking, but he was a born writer with a vivid way of saying things. He had an abundance of exciting events to write about: fighting against Mexicans and Indians, Ranger activities, an attack by wolves, a buffalo stampede, and many other colorful episodes. Nichols' account is fast-moving, fascinating frontier history by a man who was really there UR - https://doi.org/10.7560/736603 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9780292747982 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9780292747982/original ER -
