A triumph of historical detective work, Crossing the Continent is the remarkable, never-before-told story of the first black explorer and adventurer in <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />America, Esteban Dorantes. An African slave, Dorantes led an eight-year journey from Florida to California in the early sixteenth century?three hundred years before Lewis and Clark ventured west. An extraordinary true-life saga of courage, trials, and discovery that the Philadelphia Inquirer calls, ?an adventure story more thrilling than Defoe or Melville could have imagined,? Crossing the Continent breaks new ground as it challenges the traditional view of American history.
