Bøger af Ella E. Clark

A collection of more than one hundred tribal tales, culled from the oral tradition of the Indians of Washington and Oregon that presents the Indians' own stories, told for generations around their fires, of the mountains, lakes, and rivers, and of the creation of the world and the heavens above.

The legend tells us of Sacagawea ("Bird Woman") as the guide showing Lewis and Clark the way over the Rockies to the Pacific Ocean, and fictionalized accounts have embroidered on her life as it might have been. In fact, however, her life as it might have been. This historical account separates the verifiable facts about Sacagawea from the legend.
