Beyond Lewis & Clark: The Army Explores the West

Ronda, (chair, Western History, University of Tulsa) places the Lewis and Clark expedition within the larger perspective of Enlightenment- era science and empire building and looks at how the Jeffersonian model of exploration endured through other army expeditions, in this companion to an exhibition organized by the Washington State Historical Society. B&w historical photos, illustrations, and maps are included. There is no subject index. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
