The Sagebrush Rebellion is the movement started by ranchers and miners during the late 1970s in response to efforts of the Bureau of Land management (B.L.M.) to improve management of federal lands. While its announced goal was to give the lands "back" to the western states, its real goal -- and the one it achieved -- was to force the B.L.M. to abandon its new approach to public land management.
