From the New York Times bestselling author of Band of Brothers and D-Day, the definitive book on Lewis and Clark’s exploration of the Louisiana Purchase, the most momentous expedition in American history and one of the great adventure stories of all time.In 1803 President Thomas Jefferson selected his personal secretary, Captain Meriwether Lewis, to lead a voyage up the Missouri River to the Rockies, over the mountains, down the Columbia River to the Pacific Ocean, and back. Lewis and his partner, Captain William Clark, made the first map of the trans-Mississippi West, provided invaluable scientific data on the flora and fauna of the Louisiana Purchase territory, and established the American claim to Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. Ambrose has pieced together previously unknown information about weather, terrain, and medical knowledge at the time to provide a vivid backdrop for the expedition. Lewis is supported by a rich variety of colorful characters, first of all Jefferson himself, whose interest in exploring and acquiring the American West went back thirty years. Next comes Clark, a rugged frontiersman whose love for Lewis matched Jefferson’s. There are numerous Indian chiefs, and Sacagawea, the Indian girl who accompanied the expedition, along with the French-Indian hunter Drouillard, the great naturalists of Philadelphia, the French and Spanish fur traders of St. Louis, John Quincy Adams, and many more leading political, scientific, and military figures of the turn of the century. High adventure, high politics, suspense, drama, and diplomacy combine with high romance and personal tragedy to make this outstanding work of scholarship as readable as a novel.

I had never read about the Lewis and Clark expedition other than learning about it casually during school. This book opened my eyes up to how the world was in the late 18th century and early 19th century, and I was shocked by the amount of precision Ambrose put into the book, as is usual with him. Everything from the preparation of the expedition to the return trip was very precise and in a whole very interesting. Ambrose wrote it to be read almost like a novel, a great adventure by a group of a mere 30 people into the great unknown, where the president even thought that woolly mammoths and other great creatures might still reside. Ambrose gives a great look at all of the Indian tribes and their lifestyles that were encountered on the trip, and a vivid description of the wildlife and surrounding geography. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is even casually interested in American history to someone who is very interested in history as I am.
