Description
"Every autumn, in sagebrush valleys east of the Sierra Nevda, Washoe Indians renew an ancient connection with their natural environment. When the time is right a leader known as the "rabbit boss" assembles a group of hunters to move through the brush, driving jackrabbits before them. ... On-site footage and historic photos and film show how the rabbit drive has survived, and record the making of one of the last of the magnificent Washoe rabbit-skin blankets"--Container label.
