Publisher's Synopsis
The Travels of Lewis and Clarke is a historical account of the famous expedition led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clarke from St. Louis, Missouri to the Pacific Ocean in 1804-1806. The book details the journey of the explorers as they traveled up the Missouri River, crossed the Rocky Mountains, and descended the Columbia River to the Pacific Coast.
