Scope and Contents

This book is a tribute to a trip with Sarah to Pyramid Lake. The final word in the "Reno Crossing" section - 'ghosted' - is tied to the final word in the "Pyramid Lake" section - 'Wodziwob' - as the latter was the first one who dreamed what came to be known as the Paiute Indian "Ghost Dance." "Pyramid Lake" is a Paiute spirit lake. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
