Publisher's Synopsis
With Thomas Jeffersons purchase of the vast Louisiana Territory, the U.S. President was one step closer to realizing his dream of a nation spanning the oceans. The next step was exploration of this new geographical possession. Thus began the unbelievable 4-tear odyssey chronicled in eight hours. When Meriwether Lewis joined William Clark to jointly head the Corps of Discovery, their quest would lead to an enduring record of happenstance, heartbreak, and hope. Featuring unforgettable exploits and indelible characters such as Sacagawea, the young Shoshone mother who led the Corps upriver in 1805, this is an audio treasury of courage and adventure. From the pen of Ron Jordan comes Lewis & Clark, The Great American Expedition. Ron has written periodicals for USA Today, The Tennessean and many other magazines and newspapers.
