" 'We set out early and prceeded to the top of the mountain . From this point I beheld the grandest and most pleasing prospects which my eyes ever surveyed.' - William Clark, January 8, 1806. When Meriwether Lewis, William Clark, and their "Corps of Discovery" set out from St. Louis on May 14, 1804, the region west of the Mississippi River was largely unknown. Lewis and Clark explored, charted, and discovered a most remarkable continent - a land filled with an array of native peoples, spectacular places, fascinating creatures, and extraordinary flora unknown east of the Mississippi. The Lewis and Clark expedition defined the American nation as a lnad stretching from coast to coast. Follow their trail and share in their sense of discovery as you examine . The letter Meriwether Lieis wrote to his mother reassuring her of the importance and safety of his mission; the code Thomas Jefferson provided to Lewis for sending secret messages; Clark's sketch of the technique some Indians used to flatten their heads as a sign of prestige; Clark's letter of gratitude to Sacagawea, a Shoshone teenager who helped the expedition. " - from the rear outer cover. ".
