Women's History Month

March is Women’s History Month. I tried to do some reading about distinguished American Women, and found somewhat limited resources available online. It was difficult to even find out that Women’s History Month wasn’t even established until 1987 – a mere 21 years ago. So, I've gathered some Women in History links for Women's History Month. Most of the links are related to Women in American History - but there are also general links for Women's History timelines and History of the Women's Movement etc. - anything I felt could be related to Women's History Month, and just want to share the informational links with all who are interested.

Sacagawea: A Biography $22.63 Sacagawea, kidnapped as an adolescent and sold as a slave to a French-Canadian fur trader, is best known for her role as interpreter and symbol of goodwill for Lewis and Clark on their journey west. Despite her pivotal role in this era of Manifest Destiny and blending cultures, much of her ensuing life story remains uncertain, thanks to a larger focus on Lewis and Clark themselves, as well as the perpetuation of legend over fact in several 20th century movies and publications. This concise and readable biography offers an objective treatment of Sacagawea's childhood, her journey with Lewis and Clark, her later life, her explorer son, and the mythology surrounding her death and legacy. As the Lewis and Clark expedition is heavily represented in the U.S. history curriculum, this much-needed volume fills a gap on the reference shelves and supplements American history and Native American studies curricula. Lively narrative chapters are supplemented with a timeline, photos, print and nonprint bibliography, and an index.

Sacagawea River $93.99 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Sacagawea River is a tributary of the Musselshell River, approximately 30 mi (48 km) long, in northcentral Montana in the United States. It rises on the plains of northern Fergus County and flows eastward. The river formerly joined the Musselshell five miles above the confluence of the Musselshell with the Missouri, but it now flows into the arm of Fort Peck Lake on the Missouri formed by the mouth of the Musselshell. The river was explored during the Lewis and Clark Expedition and named after their guide, Sacagawea. The river was named after her because she was in a canoe, and got caught in a storm. The canoe nearly tipped over, the expedition members were trying to balance the boat, but Sacajawea collected all the books, records, and instruments from the journey. They may have been covered in some material which prevented water damage. The river was named after her for this deed. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F.
