Sarah Herrmann arrived at her new home in the Minnesota Territory in the spring of 1856. Sarah began a journal during her travel from Ohio to Minnesota and continued to write of her life for many more years. Her first friend in Minnesota was New Moon, a Dakota girl who lived on a reservation near the Herrmann homestead. Sarah's early gifts to New Moon were papers for her drawings and a notebook to write about her life. This book contains some of the notebook entries of both girls describing their lives before, during, and after the Dakota Conflict of 1862.

From the New York Times-bestselling author of The Secret World of Weather and The Lost Art of Reading Nature’s Signs, learn to tap into nature and notice the hidden clues all around you Before GPS, before the compass, and even before cartography, humankind was navigating. Now this singular guide helps us rediscover what our ancestors long understood—that a windswept tree, the depth of a puddle, or a trill of birdsong can help us find our way, if we know what to look and listen for. Adventurer and navigation expert Tristan Gooley unlocks the directional clues hidden in the sun, moon, stars, clouds, weather patterns, lengthening shadows, changing tides, plant growth, and the habits of wildlife. Rich with navigational anecdotes collected across ages, continents, and cultures, The Natural Navigator will help keep you on course and open your eyes to the wonders, large and small, of the natural world.
