The intimate, human memories regarding Charles M. Russell, his
genius and eccentricities, which Frank Linderman set down shortly
after the death of his good friend, constitute a miscellany of
personal insights for which any of Russell's biographers ought to
have given his eyeteeth. But in none of the increasingly frequent
Russell commentaries, apparently, has use ever been made of these
prime source materials.When Russell and Linderman met, it was to be
expected a close friendship would result. Their interests,
experiences, and natural inclinations were of the same cloth. They
loved untrammeled people in virgin country; they had high regard
for the old-time Indian and his mores; they held the encroachments
upon the old West of civilization's less laudable aspects in mutual
disdain; and, finally, Linderman with words and Russell with paint
and clay were professional artists concerned in the re-creation of
a beloved time fast slipping away. These recollections of their
shared campfires, trails, conversations, and fun constitute the
finest portrait extant of Charley Russell, the human being, pulsing
with personality, quip, and many of his well-known tall tales.
