O knihe
This is the thrilling story of two men commissioned
by President Thomas Jefferson to explore the
unknown land of the Louisiana Purchase-the
vast, mysterious land from the Mississippi River
to the Pacifi c Ocean. In 1803 Meriwether Lewis
and William Clark gathered a crew of adventurous
men of strength and ability to form the Corps of
Discovery. Could they fi nd a waterway passage
through this unknown territory to the Pacific
Ocean? Each man knew the trip would be
hazardous, even life-threatening. How would
the native Indian tribes react to them? How were
they going to communicate with the Indians?
What kind of land formations and dangers were
waiting ahead? Captain Lewis said to assume the
trip would take two years, a long time to be gone
from home. They would claim the land as they
went, doubling the size of the new nation, the
United States of America.
