Read the book: These Tremendous Mountains. Chronicles the adventures of Lewis and Clark in their quest to find a water route to the sea. They had hunters whose only job was to go ahead of the boats, shoot game, and hang it from limbs along the river. These adventurers ate massive amounts of protein to fuel their strenuous lifestyles. This woman did something besides consuming too much protein, that contributed to her death.
