Zusammenfassung: | A long time ago -- We ya ooyet soyapo (The coming of the white man) -- In a big hurry -- Down the Koos keihk-keihk (Clearwater) -- Down the Snake -- Down the Columbia -- Twisted Hair's return trip -- With the Walla Walla Nation -- On the Clearwater's north bank trail -- The grand council -- The long camp -- The Ordway junket -- Last days at the long camp -- The first attempt to cross -- The second attempt -- The Nez Perces and Lewis and Clark after 1806 Lewis and Clark Among the Nez Perce is a generous and careful re-evaluation of what we all thought we knew about Lewis and Clark west of the Bitterroot Mountains. It is also a template for a series of tribal histories of the Lewis and Clark expedition that will be inspired by this book. Incidents we thought we knew backwards and forwards suddenly take on a new light when the historical lens is reversed, and the reader begins to understand what the extended visit of Lewis and Clark meant to their hosts--approximately four months of daily interchange with a community of Indians the white visitors regarded as especially friendly, hospitable, and helpful to the success of the expedition.--From publisher's description |
