SAGEBRUSH PRINCESS WITH A CAUSE SARAH WINNEMUCCA “My white brothers-- My long-looked for white brothers have come at last!" Chief Truckee – Grandfather of Winnemucca Folks, it wasn’t long in her life before Princess Sarah Winnemucca had some reservations about her grandfather’s exuberance. As a matter of fact, her father - Chief Winnemucca - distrusted the whites and Sarah was torn between two thoughts about the white men. Where she wanted to believe that white men meant to do right by the Indians, she finally relinquished that thought as she focused on the mountain injustices toward her people. Yet, she was not one to go silently into the night – no, she had a keen intelligence, surpassing courage, and when it served her, a scorching temper. She carried her protests to the highest authorities she could locate – army officers, politicians – even to the President of the United States – and if and when they failed to act, she courted public opinion, declaiming eloquently from lecture platforms, dressed in stunning Paiute costumes. THIS IS A ONE OF A KIND REMEMBRANCE! Please read this. There were many a western story published – the common ones about cowboy and Indians are listed on eCRATER every day but the rarer ones about the Indian heroines of the old west like PRINCESS SARAH WINNEMUCCA are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out cause really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest. Here’s one of ‘em. Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western pioneers. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost. Humbly, I am trying to keep history alive. I hope you appreciate the effort.

Yakima Reservation in Washington Territory SAGEBRUSH PRINCESS WITH A CAUSE SARAH WINNEMUCCA by Elinor Richey PAIUTE INDIAN MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING While others clip ads from magazines, I save history. It’s a shame that our past is being lost. It’s as simple as that. My wife kids me that after I find a piece I like, buy it, read it, research it, take a picture, scan it, write the blurb, pay the eCRATER entry fee and commission, that I end up making about 50 cents an hour. But, OH HOW I LOVE THIS OLD WESTERN HISTORY. What a story, Rare Story!!! Great Pictures. You will love it as it was published in this old complete western magazine printed on heavy slick paper many years ago. The issue is in excellent condition, the cover is pristine and in vibrant color. As clearly stated in my description, this is featured story in a rarely found and seldom read unusual and complete western magazine. I don't give out name of publication or date because I have caught competitors copying my index and work and trying to sell it as theirs. I hope you understand.
