great read, wonderful way to experience the thrill of the Lewis and Clark expedition. forget the dry, boring facts from history books. this is a front row seat on the keelboat, rowing against the current of the mighty missouri river...

The story of Meriwether Lewis and his life before, during and after the Lewis & Clark Expedition. Part of a great series by Nevin.
This was another excellent book by David Nevin, in fact I would call it one of his better efforts.
