"Pathfinders of the West" by Agnes C. Laut is a historical adventure that tells the stories of explorers like Radisson, La Vérendrye, and Lewis and Clark, who charted the Great Northwest. It aims to correct historical perspectives by showcasing the important contributions of these figures. Beginning with Radisson, the book portrays a young Frenchman captured by the Iroquois, using his spirit and intelligence to endure challenges and navigate his captivity. His daring escape, tense relationship with the Iroquois, and eventual respect earned, all play a role in setting the tone for the transformative impact of westward exploration.
