Kirkpatrick is a gifted author that draws you into the story. I thoroughly enjoyed this 2nd book of the series and eagerly await the next to arrive in the mail!
This book is based on the true story of the friend of famous Indian woman, Sacegawea.

This was a tremondous book, could not put it down.
I found the first book in this series ok and wasn't sure I would read the second but it was so much better. The story has been well written with none of the rambling the first novel exhibited. I chose to follow through as I needed a book for a challenge and this one was on my shelf. In addition, I quite like Marie as portrayed in the first book. The author reviews her extensive research in her notes at the back. While I did not always agree with the liberties she took in writing the tale, I did enjoy it. Marie has changed and becomes a rather inflexible and rigid person in this novel. Not sure I like that but there is another novel to come in this trilogy so I may follow through when I can obtain it.
Its the second in a series about Marie Dorion who traveled to oregon in the early 1800's. This is an Historical Novel. Most of the facts are true. The story is made up. I like stories about woman. She was a tough lady, but had lost of doubts about her abilities. I did enjoy this book.
Good book - different from most books that I choose but I enjoyed it.
Don't know, it's my mother's and I didn't read it. She liked it a lot tho!
