From Sea To Shining Sea by Peter Marshall & David Manuel

After the Revolutionary War, America was growing. Was God intervening on behalf of the struggling nation, or the natural outpouring of technological and social changes? The authors make the case that America's future was threatened by greed, pride, and self-righteousness, but in the midst of turmoil, God raised up leaders to uniquely shape our country and character. This is the story of a country moving forward--but always with an eye on the Christian heritage of the past.

Streams To The River, River To The Sea by Scott O'Dell

No woman in all of our history has captured the imagination like the young Shoshone girl, Sacagawea, who served as an interpreter and often as a guide for Lewis and Clark on their famous expedition into our uncharted West. She exists in the journals and narratives of that legendary search as a shadow, valued for her knowledge of the languages, the country and the customs of her people, but always as a shadow and a stranger. In this book, Scott O'Dell has brought Sacagawea to life and we now see Lewis and Clark's great adventure through her eyes.
