This is one of the most wonderful books I have ever read. I have had this book since 2002 and read several times. Sacajawea is an American Legend and is vital to understanding American history.
A really good book about her.
The heroic saga of a great woman whose life tells the story of a nation. Her name was legend and the legend was America.
Clad in a doeskin, alone and unafraid, she stood straight and proud before the onrushing forces of America's destiny. Sacajawea: the beautiful child who sprang from the savage keep of a Shoshoni camp high in the Rockies, the lone woman on Lewis and Clark's historic trek.
Ten years in the writing, SACAJAWEA unfolds an immense canvas of people and events, and captures the eternal longings of a woman who always yearned for one great passion--and always it lay beyond the next mountain.
