"The complete history of the Washo remains to be researched and written. This book, written partially from interviews with the knowledgeable tribal members, tries to show our way of life before the white man came. Many distinct features help to make up our culture: gifted basketmakers, the wisdom of the long-preserved legends, and the traditional way of life are only a few of these. With this background, the reader can better understand the devastating impact white civilization had on our people. We were a peaceful people who never fought the whites and were granted a treaty. After the white men took our lands, we struggled to preserve our way of life.". 20020412. Washo Indians History. North America. Nevada History. Inter-Tribal Council of Nevada.
