Bon Appetit -- When Georges Drouillard, the hired civilian hunter
and interpreter, accompanied Captains Lewis and Clark on their
Voyage of Discovery, 1803-1806, there were no "fine dining
establishments" along the Mississippi River Today, there are, and
Part I of this book provides travelers of the Lewis and Clark Trail
guidance to some of the best in both fine dining and "trailside
fare." Called "Drewyer" in the Journals of Lewis and Clark, this
adept hunter was also a valued interpreter for the expedition. Few
people know that he was a Shawnee man whose residence was in the
area of Cape Girardeau, Missouri, both before and after the famous
journey to the Pacific Ocean. In Part II of the book, The Life and
Times of Georges P. Drouillard, readers learn more about the
historical, cultural, and geographic context of this man, Drewyer,
who deserves to be better known and appreciated. YOU are invited to
come along for the ride. Enjoy What others have had to say about
Bon Appetit and The Life and Times of Georges P. Drouillard "George
Drouillard was a major factor in the success of the Lewis &
Clark Expedition. His story is seldom told, but your manuscript
sheds more light on this outstanding man of Shawnee and French
Canadian ancestry. Your research and view of Drouillard helps the
reader understand him better." --Jane Randol Jackson, author of
"Cape Girardeau and the Corps of Discovery," in We Proceeded On,
Vol. 31, No. 1, February, 2005. "I keep my copy in my lap desk. It
