Europe's efforts to gain control of the New World form the background of this biography of Robert Cavalier, Sieur de la Salle, the first explorer to sail the length of the Mississippi. Johnson uses evidence from the recent discovery of La Salle's sunken ship in the Gulf of Mexico to piece together what happened on his last voyage.
