The famed Canadian explorer David Thompson, one of the word's greatest explorer-mapmakers, left a mystery in his wake in the period of time he spent developing the fur trade in northwestern Montana, northern Idaho and northeastern Washington (1807-1812) - the location of Saleesh House along what is now called the Clark Fork River in northwestern Montana - near the explorer's namesake town of Thompson Falls, Montana. In this book of exhaustive research and field word, travel along with author Carl Haywood as he follows Thompson's travels through Montana with brief looks at the journey along the way. Seeking an answer to the fundamental question of where, exactly, Saleesh House was located, Haywood takes the reader step-by-step through the hardships and peril Thompson and his voyagers faced.
