A young Shoshone woman. A small baby. A gigantic dog. A journey like no other.
In 1804, President Thomas Jefferson appointed Meriwether Lewis and William Clark to lead an expedition across the western United States to the Pacific Ocean. To communicate with the Native peoples they would encounter, they engaged a young Shoshone woman called Sacagawea to accompany them. Sacagawea's knowledge of the West allowed them to trade for food and supplies and request help when desperately needed.
In Sacagawea: Westward with Lewis and Clark , Alana White explores the life and times of this fascinating woman. In their journals, Lewis and Clark describe Sacagawea as calm, courageous, and uncomplaining. Down raging rivers, around turbulent waterfalls, and over the Rocky Mountains, during desperate times when there was little to no food or shelter, Sacagawea endured.
"Sacagawea's remarkable life related throughout White's book comes from entries in the Lewis and Clark journals, as well as Shoshone Oral Tradition. Concisely written and highly readable." - VOYA
Sacagawea's legacy has been widely honored in the United States with statues, monuments, and markers, including one erected in patriotic memory of her by the Wyoming Daughters of the American Revolution on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming.
