In their own words, recorded in the famous journals of Lewis and Clark, the members of the Corps of Discovery tell their story with an immediacy and power missing from secondhand accounts. All of their triumphs and terrors are here: the thrill of seeing the vast herds of bison, the fear the captains felt when Sacagawea fell ill, the ordeal of crossing the Continental Divide, the misery of cold and hunger, and the kidnapping and rescue of Lewis' dog, Seaman. The natural wonders of an unspoiled America are here, and the lives and customs of its native peoples also come vividly to life, making for a living drama that is humorous, poignant, and, at least once, tragic.

Editor Gary E. Moulton blends the narrative highlights of his definitive Nebraska edition of the Lewis and Clark journals to bring forth the voices of the enlisted men - and of the Native Americans, heard for the first time alongside the words of the captains.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"If you're going to listen to just one book...you should hear the story from the explorers themselves." (Newsweek)
"A triumph of scholarly publishing....Belongs on most readers' shelves - and should accompany any road trip through the West." (Atlantic Monthly)
"What makes this single volume of journal selections more powerful than its contemporaries is the use of other corps members' diaries to provide further details about the journey." (Library Journal)

The day to day writings of Louis and Clark, plus other expedition members, keeps me listening without losing interest. Listening to it was like receiving letters from a friend tell about their adventures. The editor inserts material to explain locations or vocabulary out of use. I enjoyed the detailed descriptions of wildlife, Indian cultures, and geographic observations. The narrator changes his voice to articulate different characters. Excellent!

The story can drone on at times due to the fact that this is a journal and not an edge of your seat thriller or action novel. This being said, the story of this massive undertaking is epic, and if history is your thing, you'll love it.

History of story is epic.

I wanted to gain a greater knowledge of the Lewis and Clark expedition. I loved listening to the entries, and it gave me exactly what I wanted to know. I enjoyed the summary at the beginning, and the small commentaries to help gain perspective without diminishing anything from the writings . Fabulous job .

The way rhis book is structured by beginning with a survey of the whole journey prior to the readings from the journals was helpful along with the interpretive comments throughout the book was excellent.

I liked it better than I even thought I. would

The actual day to day observations revealed here lead to a very different reality than what we were taught as children. It relieves a certain unjustified guilt we have been made to carry by distorted reports about early American history.

Enlightening
