The Sacagawea of Eva Emery Dye.
- Authors
Laycock, Ronald
- Abstract
The article presents a historical profile of American novelist Eva Emery Dye, focusing on ways in which her portrayal of the Shoshone Indian woman Sacagawea in her novel "The Conquest: The True Story of Lewis and Clark," has contributed to romantic and mythological interpretations of Sacagawea's life and accomplishments. The article notes Dye's work in the woman's suffrage movement and discusses her efforts in leading a movement to construct a bronze statue of Sacagawea in Oregon.
