The Journal of Augustus Pelletier: The Lewis and Clark Expedition

175 pp. | Scholastic | September, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-590-68489-2 $$10.95
(4) 4-6 My Name Is America series. In this fictional journal, a half-French, half-Omaha Indian runaway shadows the Lewis and Clark expedition before making his presence known and becoming a valued member of the crew. Gus's journal is readable but basically remains a by-the-numbers recitation of real-life events. A historical note and section of archival images provide additional information on Lewis and Clark's journey.
