When her village is raided, she is kidnapped and then gambled away to Charbonneau, a French Canadian trapper. Now she must learn to survive in a new world teeming with fur trappers and traders. When Lewis and Clark's expedition arrives, Sacajewea must cross a vast and brutal terrain with her newborn son, the white man who owns her, and a company of men who wish to conquer and commodify the world she loves. -- adapted from jacket
