Sarah Winnemucca is the granddaughter of a great Paiute Indian chief who believes in learning the ways of the white people and making peace with them. At his wish, Sarah travels, live with a white family, and goes to school. She learns English, and becomes fascinated with reading and writing. Yet, Sarah loves the ways of her own village as well: living close to the land, wearing soft moccasins on her feet, hearing her grandfather's folktales. Moving back and forth between the two worlds begins to rock Sarah's sense of identity. She is not white, and yet she is not typically Paiute, either. When violence arises between her tribe and the white people, Sarah must find a way to use the knowledge she possesses-- instead of bows and arrows or rifles-- to help her people. This beautiful novel is based on the true story of Sarah Winnemucca, a gifted teacher, a passionate peacemaker, a hero.
