Pathfinders of the West
BEING THE THRILLING STORY OF THE ADVENTURES OF THE MEN WHO DISCOVERED THE GREAT NORTHWEST, RADISSON, LA VÉRENDRYE, LEWIS, AND CLARK
“A thrilling account of the adventures of Radisson, La Vérendrye, Lewis, Clark, and others who discovered the great Northwest. The author’s stories of these men are well studied, well expressed, always reasonable, always enthusiastic, yet never fulsome.... Miss Laut’s simply written chapters have all the compelling charm of good fiction. Many readers not accustomed to literature of this order will peruse the book with eager delight because of the quietly effective manner in which the dramatic facts are presented.”—Chicago Record-Herald.

Vikings of the Pacific
A CONTINUATION OF “PATHFINDERS OF THE WEST”
“Miss Laut sets herself the task of writing about the Pacific pioneers and explorers in popular style, and she has achieved a huge success. In interest her stories leave the historical novel far in the rear, for she deals in the first instance with well-established facts which are romantic enough without imaginative coloring.... Her book awakens a desire to know more about these lusty vikings of the Pacific, so that the measure of Miss Laut’s success is something more than to have written a popular book.”—New York Sun.
