The Shoshoni Indians Have Never, Until Now, Found Their Biographer. This Longoverdue Volume At Last Brings Their History Into Focus. Perhaps It Is The Nature Of The Shoshonisa Friend, Always A Friendwhich Has Caused Them To Be Overlooked By Historians. Washakie, Their Great Chieftain Of The Nineteenth Century, Suffered Hardship, Personal Affront, And Even Loss Of Prestige To Prove His Abiding Attachment To The White Man.In Their Original Habitat, The Great Basinin Oregon And California, Across Nevada, Utah, And Idaho Into Wyomingthe Shoshonis Had No Knowledge Of Warfare. They Were A Primitive People Wandering Singly Or In Small Family Groups Over Vast Areas In Quest Of Food. When Some Of Their Number Ventured Into The Rockies, They Found A New Way Of Life. While Buffalo Hunting, They Grouped Together And Chose Tribal Leaders.Together With The Comanches And Kiowas, For A Time The Shoshonis Dominated The Great Plains Of Colorado And Into Texas. Even After Their Allies Had Drifted Southward, They Fought Creditably With The Sioux And The Blackfeetthat Is, Until Their Enemies Acquired The Gun And Chased Them Back Into The Mountains.As Sentinels Of The Rockies, The Shoshonis Controlled The Great Mountain Barrier, A Natural Fortification Which They Were Illequipped To Man. Consequently, Their Story Is Less One Of Combat And Bloodshed Than It Is Of Cultural Changes Brought About By The Force Of Time And White Settlers.
