β¦ Synopsis
THE INDIANS CALLED IT WANAGI: THE LEGENDARY WHITE BUFFALO...
To the Indian, Wanagi was a featsome creature possessed of unique magic powers; to the American frontiersman, the rare albino bisonβs hide and head were worth a small fortune and a measure of rough fame.
And so two killers came, through many dangers, each alone, in that autumn of 1874, to hunt the White Buffalo; one, a failing gunfighter, driven by the threat of poverty; the other, a Sioux Indian warrior, looking for the kill that would bring good medicine for the spirit of his dead child.
Both were aristocrats of the Old West, legends among the red and white cultures. Soon to be participants in a crushing, heroic combat between man and man, man and beast. Their names were Wild Bill Hickok and Crazy Horse.
