This author wrote many action adventure books and this visit to the American frontier paints a very vivid, if somewhat inaccurate picture of the Wild West. Although the main plot is of retrieving a female captive and reuniting her with her family, his many side tales stretched the credibility of the story as he described such feats as the main character escaping a buffalo stampede by riding on them. Mayne Reid was a drinking companion to Edgar Allan Poe who called him a colossal but most picturesque liar and credited him with telling colorful and interesting tales that were fun to listen to. This author is also listed among the favorites of such people as Teddy Roosevelt and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The Scalp Hunters was a fast paced, rather dated and at time silly read.
