Skimming this volume for reference to C.J. "Buffalo" Jones .... which I have yet to find ... leads me back to Hough's "Story of the Cowboy" ... which seems to be included in this .. at least in part.  looks like I have some more reading to do.  Anyway, it is a historically significant book and not difficult to comprehend.
