Pomp by Frederick Taylor

Pomp by Frederick Taylor

Whatever happened to Sacagawea's son? His mother became a legend. But the infant boy who also made the hazardous 1,900-mile journey to Oregon with the Lewis and Clark Expedition nearly disappeared from sight after their return. Yet he lived a long, adventurous life. Educated in St. Louis by William Clark, he spent six years in Europe as the ward of a German prince. Upon his return he joined the fur trade, working with the famous of the west--Jim Bridger, Tom Fitzpatrick, Kit Carson--a guide for the Mormon Battalion in its 1,100-mile march across the Southwest to California, the alcalde of Mission San Luis Rey, and a gold miner. He died, in a remote corner of Southeastern Oregon, at age 61.

Frederick Taylor is the author of the international bestsellers Dresden and The Berlin Wall, which have been translated into other languages, as well as the editor and translator of The Goebbels Diaries: 1939-1941. He has given talks all over the world and starred in several major television documentaries, most recently The Rise and Collapse of the Berlin Wall on the History Channel and The Wall: A World Divided on PBS. He lives in Cornwall, England, and is a fellow of the Royal Historical Society.
