Applauding your piece after pouring over Mr. Cox's story in the NYTimes Magazine. As a ND prairie child, Sakakawea (yes, that's what we were taught .... thanks for pointing out the name spelling used in the Dakotas) was both mythical and believable. So many angles to myths, but the sheer number and locations of monuments you picture (thanks!) speak to the human need for improbable heroes.
