It was November 1806. The explorers had gone without food for one day, then two. Their leader, not yet thirty, drove on, determined to ascend the great mountain. Waist deep in snow, he reluctantly turned back. But Zebulon Pike had not been defeated. His name remained on the unclimbed peak-and new adventures lay ahead of him and his republic. In Citizen Explorer, historian Jared Orsi provides the first modern biography of this soldier and explorer, who rivaled contemporaries Meriwether Lewis and William Clark.

Good story, poor narration
Revisado: 03-16-22
Just finished Undaunted Courage before this book, and thought I’d try another story about westward exploration. While this book had good information, the details and narrative were not as rich as Undaunted Courage. I was also distracted by the flat tone of the narrator- I was consistently reminded of a bored surfer dude being asked to read aloud in his high school history class.
