Buffalo Bill in Bergerac


Recommended Posts

Apologies if this has been covered in past years...I don't know why but I find it incongruous to think of Buffalo Bill in Bergerac. I was astounded to see a plaque on a house (next door to a Chinese restaurant!) in Bergerac saying that he stayed there on 9 October 1905. A little research backs this up - see http://books.google.fr/books?id=J9iB7ftjaYIC&pg=PA87&lpg=PA87&dq=buffalo+bill+bergerac&source=bl&ots=zyrheIHokS&sig=D6kmGi_ROSpS0_EWqShuLnGCFDA&hl=en&ei=H2eeToHgO9Gr8QPJhK2UCQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&ved=0CEcQ6AEwBQ#v=onepage&q&f=false. Here is the plaque: http://www.flickr.com/photos/martin-m-miles/4171087443/.

Can anyone shed anymore light on this episode? Any ideas where his Wild West Show performed in Bergerac?
