One of the significant and astounding explorations, in 1804-1806, was the expedition under the leadership of Captain Meriwether Lewis and Captain William Clark opening up a trail from St. Louis, Missouri to the Pacific Coast at the mouth of the mighty Columbia River. Edwin Sabin write an engaging account of this challenging journey with ample dialogue so that it reads like an adventure story rather than just a history full of facts and figures, but he fairly represents the characters and events of the long expedition. - Summary by Larry Wilson

No doubt this would have been an Extremely Hard Journey, But IF You Have Any Sense Of Adventure Whatsoever Can You Imagine What Being There Woulda Been Like ? And That Feeling As They Approached St Louis In That Final Leg Of The Adventure ? WOW 🤠🇺🇸👍😁

“Our great father has medicines on those boats that will wipe out 20 Sioux Nations”. That’s an interesting quote that stands out to me. Were these great medicines ammo, or were they traveling with something else?

I read that it was just a lie to scare them, an attempt to exploit the natives superstitious side.

They brought viruses that were novel to indigenous people, small pox and influenza that wiped out entire communities.
