Classic biography, first published in 1964, on one of the important members of the Corps of Discovery
M. O. Skarsten, a professor emeritus at Pacific University, was a long-time admirer and student of Lewis and Clark affairs. Robert C. Carriker, historian of the fur trade, Lewis and Clark, and Western exploration, is the author of several books, including America Looks West: Lewis and Clark on the Missouri.
"Skarsten does an excellent job of assembling the patchwork quilt
of references to Drouillard in order to fashion a biography of a
great frontiersman."—San Francisco Corral
"In the parlance of our day, Droullard seems to have been Lewis and
Clark's go to man. Somehow or other, he seems to always have been
present at the critical junctures of the expedition. . . . Fine
book."—Glenn M. Busset, Manhattan Mercury
