A new area to me. Well written and quite interesting.
A very interesting history of the Lewis and Clark Journals that follows them from writing to later discovery and the path followed from editor to editor. After the journals themselves and then the "Letters of the Lewis and Clark Expedition" this volume ought to be third on your list of L&C material.
Cutright reviews the scientific study of the Corps of Discovery. Each chapter is followed by a list of new discoveries along the stages of the trail.
