Done in great National Geo style, with stunning photos, this is a great "pocket" guide to the Lewis and Clark Trail. However, with it's lack of maps, it needs to be used in concert with larger, more detailed guides, such as "Along the Trail with Lewis and Clark" by Barbara Fifer, et al. If you are among the many contemplating hitting the Trail, this book will come in handy.

For anyone wishing to visit historic locations along the trail of Lewis and Clark's expedition, this is the best summary you can find. Tom Schmidt does an excellent job of collecting information from the Lewis and Clark Journals and relating this all to the sites we can all visit along the trail.

On a Trip to Retrace Lewis & Clark's Route from Great Falls MO.to Clarkston WA. this Book was a valuable Trip Companion. It guided beautifully, helped to find important Places and explained them in detail once there.Glad we bought this Book before starting our Trip

Staying true to the National Geographic reputation for excellence, this book served as a genuine historical guide to follow the Lewis and Clark Trail. Beginning in St. Louis the book details the trail through the journal entries of Lewis and Clark. Daily point-to-point locations are described and the reader gets a peek into the daily lives of the exploration members' lives. Maps served to guide us along the authentic trail as closely as modern travel allowed. Using this book in conjunction with another excellent guide, Traveling the Lewis and Clark Trail by Julie Fanslow, my husband and I drove and camped along the actual trail used by Lewis and Clark on their Westward portion of their exploration.

I had never used Amazon before. I always thought the effort of ordering, paying and then having items sent to Australia would be too difficult. I was wrong.
Your service is unbelievable. As I couldn't get the titles any other way, I needed to try you out and as a result, will be using your services again.
Many many thanks
