Sacajawea and William Clark tell Jean Baptiste Charbonneau of their adventures exploring the West during the Corps of Discovery. It delves into Sacajawea's capture and travels to the Mandans where she met her husband and later William Clark and Merriwether Lewis. In alternating chapters, they tell Pomp of their adventures going to the Pacific Ocean and back. I listened to this novel which was read by Nicolle Littrell and Michael Radkin. They read as if they were actually speaking to Pomp at Clark's home in St. Louis. At the beginning of Clark's chapter, there would be a journal entry from Clark or Lewis. At the beginning of Sacajawea's chapter there was a short American Indian myth or legend. Students who are fans of historical fiction and adventure will enjoy this novel.
