In this redesigned edition of Scott O'Dell's classic novel, a young Native American woman, accompanied by her infant and her cruel husband, experiences joy and heartbreak when she joins the Lewis and Clark expedition seeking a way to the Pacific.
母亲就在眼前遇害,自己被仇人抓至异乡,几经反抗又后被以“游戏”的方式决定未来的命运……肖肖尼族女孩莎卡嘉薇亚的人生本会如许许多多印第安部落中的女性一样,从一开始就注定了是场悲剧。
但如野花般顽强生长的莎卡嘉薇亚并未屈服于命运的安排。她抓住机遇,成为那支受命于总统的探险队的向导和翻译;她凭着惊人的勇气与毅力,帮助探险队开辟了通往太平洋的路径;她没有接受和刘易斯队长一起回圣路易斯甚至去华盛顿的提议,而选择坚持自我、回归家乡……
她是莎卡嘉薇亚,是历史中永远的传奇。
