Distributed by the University of Nebraska Press for Caxton Press Two hundred years ago, Meriwether Lewis led the Corps of Discovery across the Continental Divide and down into the Salmon River country of what is now Idaho. There, in a mountain meadow, the explorers me the Mountain (Lemhi) Shoshoni. The Lemhi's aid to Lewis and Clark helped the Corps of Discovery reach their destination and sealed the fate of the Lemhi people.
Distributed by the University of Nebraska Press for Caxton Press Historian Brigham Madsen has devoted much of his career to telling the story of the Shoshoni. The tribe once occupied a huge region that included portions of Idaho, Oregon, Utah, Wyoming, and Montana. Madsen tells the story of the tribe and their struggle to adapt to the massive cultural changes that have occurred during the past 150 years.
