Overview

What really happened on the Lewis and Clark Expedition? Not the sanitized textbook version. The brutal truth. In 1804, the Corps of Discovery set out to cross a continent no American had ever seen. What followed was an 8,000-mile fight for survival: starvation, grizzly attacks, deadly rapids, impossible mountains, and tense standoffs with Native peoples-one of which ended in bloodshed. They survived not through force, but through diplomacy, unlikely friendships, and the courage to seek cooperation over conquest in a world where one wrong move meant death. Drawn directly from the explorers' own journals, True Adventures of Lewis and Clark holds nothing back. This isn't a dry history-it's a gripping, illustrated account of what Lewis, Clark, and their men actually faced. Inside you'll discover: - Heart-pounding encounters with grizzly bears and hostile territory - The desperate Bitterroot Mountain crossing that nearly killed them - How Sacagawea's presence changed everything - The tense Native American negotiations that determined their fate - The only deadly clash of the entire expedition Experience America's greatest expedition as it really happened.
