“Little Sure Shot.”

This is an accurate photograph of Annie Oakley while she was traveling with Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show. Unbelievable but true, one of her close friends on the Show as Sitting Bull.  The Indian chief had been sent to prison for his participation in the Black Hills Wars of 1876 – which included Little Big Horn.  He joined the Show and bonded with Oakley.  Her shooting was so good he believed she had been “gifted” with supernatural powers. Particularly because she could shoot with either hand. Sitting Bull symbolically adopted Annie Oakley as his daughter and gave her a name she used for the rest of her career:  Little Sure Shot.

How about an eerie journey during the Alaska Gold Rush?
