I know almost nothing about the Buffalo riders so very insightful overall in a dynamic period at the end of the civil war and after.  Cathy Williams (or Bill Cathay) was amazing. It is hard to believe she did all of those things. It is a work of fiction but given what she had to survive it is very believable.  I would like to see the notes as to what is grounded in the research and how much was filled in but it doesn't take anything away from the story.
