Descriere magazin:
In 1901, almost a century after
Lewis and
Clark toiled along the same route, noted writer
James Willard
Schultz and his Blackfeet wife Natahki (Fine Shield Woman) made a float trip on Montana\'s
Missouri River from Fort Benton to the mouth of the Milk River, a distance of more than 200 miles. In a small boat, they passed through what is now the Upper
Missouri National Wild and Scenic River, the Upper
Missouri River Breaks National Monument, and the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge. On one level, this book is an entertaining travelogue about the river\'s extravagant scenery, its plentiful wildlife, and the joy of drifting day after day through wild country. On another level, it is a remarkable record of the vanishing American frontier. Each tributary, island, rapid, and geological formation was the scene of some notable event to Indians or white men, including
Schultz himself, who had lived in the area since 1877.
Schultz relates those events with verve and dialog as if they happened yesterday. The result is an extraordinary book for travelers and historians alike. Schultz wrote the acclaimed Blackfeet Tales of Glacier National Park and dozens of books about Indians and the American West.
Floating on the Missouri includes an authoritative introduction to Schultz, his writings, and the historical significance of this book, by Montana historian Eugene Lee Silliman.
