More copies of this ISBN:Lewis and Clark Among the Indiansby James P Ronda
Synopses & ReviewsReview:"This remains the best analysis we have of the encounters between Lewis and Clark and the various Indian tribes they met along their route."-Anthony Brandt, American Heritage Review:"A groundbreaking history. . . . Gives great insight and detail to the colorful cultures of native peoples that were instrumental in the success of the expedition."--The Chronicles of Oklahoma Review:"The Lewis and Clark expedition has long attracted the attention of many American historians, but this is the first book-length study of the expedition's interaction with the Indian people whom it encountered on its journey of exploration. . . . [It] is particularly valuable for Ronda's inclusion of pertinent background information about the various tribes and for his ethnological analysis. An appendix also places the Sacagawea myth in its proper perspective. Gracefully written, the book bridges the gap between academic and general audiences."-R. D. Edmunds, Choice Review:"Conceptually . . . a brilliant book, extremely well written, superbly re-searched, masterfully organized. By blending traditional historical scholarship with anthropological and archaeological research, Ronda gives us the first ethnohistory of the expedition in a beautifully crafted narrative."-Doyce B. Nunis, Jr., Huntington Library Quarterly About the AuthorJames P. Ronda holds the H. G. Barnard Chair in Western History at the University of Tulsa.
