Lewis and Clark (other title)
Ambrose, Stephen E. (Author). Abell, Sam. (Added Author).

Summary:

In a marvelous blend of past and present, renowned historian and author Stephen E. Ambrose chronicles the groundbreaking trek of Lewis and Clark - a journey that he and his family retraced more than a century and a half later. Highlighted by the stunning photographs of National Geographic photographer Sam Abell, which captures the land as Lewis and Clark might have seen it, and filled with comtemporary art and excerpts from the explorers' journals, this book brings America's heritage to life as it re-creates one of the greatest moments in the history of exploration.--Back cover
