Insert into this scene a plain-spoken appealing narrator who relates the history of our heroines parentsa Nevada silver baron who forced the Crow people to give up one of their most beautiful daughters Gun That Sings in marriage to him. Although her mothers life ended as hers began so begins a remarkable tale: equal parts heartbreak and strength. This girl has been born into a world with no place for a half-native half-white child. After being hidden for years a very wicked stepmother finally gifts her with the name Snow White referring to the pale skin she will never have. Filled with fascinating glimpses through the fabled looking glass and a close-up look at hard living in the gritty gun-slinging West this is an utterly enchanting storyat once familiar and entirely new.
