Paiute Princess

The Story of Sarah Winnemucca

By: Deborah Kogan Ray

Narrated by: Christina Moore, Angela Lin

Born into the Northern Paiute tribe of Nevada in 1844, Sarah Winnemucca straddled two cultures: the traditional life of her people, and the modern ways of her grandfather's white friends. Sarah was smart and good at languages, so she was able to link the worlds. As she became older, this made her a great leader. Sarah used condemning letters, fiery speeches, and her autobiography, Life Among the Piutes, to provide detailed accounts of her people's turmoil through years of starvation, unjust relocations, and violent attacks. In Paiute Princess, Deborah Kogan Ray offers a remarkable look at an underrepresented historical figure.

Love History, love this!

This was an excellent account of American history. Narrator was excellent as well as the music and sounds.

Love the subject

Love the subject matter but the recording is edited poorly. Many of the first few words of a paragraph are cut off. It runs through the entire recording.
