Sacajawea [SCM]
by Joseph Bruchac Author
A fascinating narrative, meticulously researched, recounting the journey of the Corps of Discovery and Sacajawea's vital role in its success. Each chapter is told by either Captain William Clark or by Sacajawea as if they were in conversation with Sacajawea's son, young Pomp. Clark's chapters start with journal entries; Sacajawea's chapters start with a traditional Native American folk tale.
