The Story of Annie Oakley by Edmund Collier is a biography of the famous sharpshooter and performer, Annie Oakley. The book covers Oakley's life from her humble beginnings as a poor farm girl in Ohio to her rise to fame as a skilled marksman and performer in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. Collier delves into Oakley's personal life, including her difficult childhood and her marriage to fellow performer Frank Butler. He also explores her impact on the world of entertainment and her role in breaking down gender stereotypes of the time. Throughout the book, Collier provides vivid descriptions of Oakley's impressive feats of marksmanship, including shooting glass balls out of the air and hitting targets while riding horseback. He also includes photographs and illustrations that help bring Oakley's story to life.
