Synopsis

From narrow escapes, being saved from a wild stallion and his sister's fire-breathing cow to first love, learning his first word at school and losing his first tooth, eight year old Sage Brush finds out about life. In the midst of the Great Depression, on a "wilderness" ranch at the end of the road in the Crazy Mountains of Montana, life remains rich in family and friends, animals and imagination. The bad times - death of his brother and grandparents and the tragic shooting of a cousin, the Depression, the Lindbergh kidnapping, his teddy bear falling into the outhouse are balanced by good times - holidays, the birth of a new cousin, trips to town and parades and the state fair, a hired hand who eats more than he works but is important in other ways, selling eggs to a rich uncle. Sage Brush takes us to a different time and place, with love and humor.
