More DescriptionLoweja, is a young Indian maiden who is the quintessential image of innocence and youthful charm. Occurring in the turbulent years following the Lewis and Clark Expedition of Discovery in 1803-1806, an enterprising and sophisticated young socialite from Baltimore finds himself in a new and unfamiliar world when he ventures into unexplored regions of the western Rocky Mountains. Almost by mistake, he finds himself accompanied on this journey by a beautiful young Arikara woman whom he first chooses to ignore. He thinks of himself as a well-educated, moral and upright individual who is reluctant to accept any American Indian as being anything other than an ignorant savage. He has much to learn about life and love. At twenty-two years of age, he finds that he is beginning to succumb to the beauty and charm of this wonderful princess who travels with him. He learns a great deal about the Indian way of life, their customs and beliefs, and realizes that his hypocrisy and his condescending arrogance has been a crippling burden in his life that he is more than willing to extricate for the sake of his future happiness.
