Bill Markley is a long-time friend and guest at White Stallion Ranch and a long-time member of Western Writers of America and a current member for the Will Rogers Medallion Awards
One of Bill’s most recent books on the Legendary West Series is Wild Bill Hickok and Buffalo Bill Cody: Plainsmen of the Legendary West was wildly successful. Bills love of history and travel were instilled in him as a young boy growing up on the family farm in Pennsylvania. Bill has been in the films Dances with Wolves, Son of the Morning Star, Far and Away, Gettysburg, and Crazy Horse.
Bill's soon to be released book on Jim Bridger promises to take you to the next level. After two years of research his respect for him has grown. He accepted all people no matter who they were and only when they turned on him would he treat them as enemies. He tried to stay out of fights, but if one was unavoidable, he was in the forefront. He was like many of us, in love with the West.
