by Stephen Ambrose
If you relish reading about adventure, love the beauty and allure of the unsullied West, or just simply enjoy discovering the hidden lives of famous characters in U.S. History, this book is for you! Did you know that Merriwether Lewis was plagued with depression and never got his journals from the expedition published in his lifetime? Did you know that the entire expedition-- which undertook countless unforseen dangers-- suffered no fatalities? Learn about these things and so much more in this historical investigation into one of the greatest wilderness journeys of all time.
