This is a quick aid to enjoying the journals kept during 1803 to 1806, with text and illustrations. 
Covered are terms no longer commonly used, tools, clothing, wildlife new to Expedition members, Indian nations met (and their actual names, compared to what the Corps thought they were called), brief biographies of Expedition members, significant geographical features, and more.

This rare collection of wanted posters from the American West is a historical treasure. The book's nearly 150 original wanted posters, fugitive notices, and Pinkerton Agency circulars are supplemented by fascinated details about the technology of identification, the history of wanted posters, and the stories behind the crimes, which ranged from horse theft, safe blowing, train robbery, seduction, ''white slavery,'' and murder. Posters for notorious bandits such as Jesse James, Butch Cassidy, and the Sundance Kid are also featured.

Americas

When Captains Lewis and Clark began their Expedition of Discovery in 1803, they carried instructions from President Thomas Jefferson to learn about the American natives they met along the way. From St. Louis, up the Missouri River, over the Rocky Mountains, all the way to the Pacific Ocean and back again, the Corps of Discovery encountered Indian nations and tribes who were mostly unknown to them. There were new things to learn every day both for Jefferson's men of exploration and for the many different Indian peoples who had long ago settled in the Great Plains, the Rocky Mountains, and the Columbia River Basin. Discover: hunting and fishing, trading and gifts, creation stories and legends, councils and chiefs, tipis and earthlodges, food and festivities, spoken language and sign language, methods of travel.

Meeting Natives with Lewis and Clark (Farcountry Explorer Book)

Montana's era of "Indian Wars" consisted of nearly a century of skirmishes, battles, and large-scale wars between the U.S. military and native nations, including Blackfeet, Sioux, Northern Cheyennes, Arapahos, Gros Ventres, and Nez Perces -- and the army's Crow and Shoshone allies. These battlegrounds remain today, a testament to the clash of cultures that defined the region in the nineteenth century. 
Author Barbara Fifer takes readers on a historic journey to the solemn sites of Montana's most fascinating and storied battles, from Two Medicine Creek to the Little Bighorn and on to the Sweetgrass Hills, revealing engaging tale -- from fighters and witnesses on both sides.

 Author Barbara Fifer details who these travelers were, where they traveled, and what their lives were like along the way. Color illustrations, historical photographs, maps.
