On 14 May 1804 Meriwether Lewis & William Clark set out from Cape Dubois near St Louis with nearly four dozen man & headed west on the Missouri River. Sent by their scientist
- President Thomas Jefferson, they were embarking on the nation`s first exploration into unknown places, the most important expedition in American history. They called themselves the Corps of Discovery, yet they would fail to discover the primary object of their mission
- the Northwest passage
- a mythical all-river route through the mountains. Instead, their real discovery would be the land itself
- & the promises it held. This magnificent book, written by Dayton Duncan
- with contributions from Ken Burns, Stephen Ambrose & Erica Funkhouser
- is illustrated with the full spectrum of animals, plants, landscapes, people & entire cultures which had never previously been seen by `civilized` men. It also draws on the journals kept by Lewis & Clark & by others in the Corps: reports of their encounters with indians; loving descriptions of the Western landscape; introductions to two of the most fascinating characters in the party, the Shoshone woman Sacagawea & Clark`s slave York; intense accounts of hunger, numbing cold, loneliness, excitement & much more.

Two centuries after their expedition awoke the nation both to the promise & to the disquiet of the vast territory out west, Lewis & Clark still stir the imagination, & their adventure remains one of the most celebrated & studied chapters in American history. This volume explores the legacy of Lewis & Clark`s momentous journey &, on the occasion of its bicentennial, considers the impact of their westward expedition on American culture. Approaching their subject from many different perspectives--literature, history, women`s studies, law, medicine, & environmental history, among others--the authors chart shifting attitudes about the explorers & their journals, together creating a compelling, finely detailed picture of the ”interdisciplinary intrigue” that has always surrounded Lewis & Clark`s accomplishment. This collection is most remarkable for its insights into ongoing debates over the relationships between settler culture & aboriginal peoples, law & land tenure, manifest destiny & westward expansion, as well as over the character of Sacagawea, the expedition`s vision of nature, & the interpretation & preservation of the Lewis & Clark Trail. ...

During the years between 1890 & 1930 Lewisham was a byword for solid comfort & respectability. However, this was a time of rapid change, when the wealthy merchants who had dominated Victorian Lewisham were moving further from their workplaces in london, & the streets were being colonised by thousands of lower middle class settlers. The commercial clerk was the characteristic denizen of early twentieth-century Lewisham. These new inhabitants were great lovers of postcards, & most of the pictures presented here, more than two hundred in total, & taken from the huge number of them published during that classic period. Very few have appeared in book form before. There are photographs of Blackheath (both the Lewisham & Greenwich parts), Lee, central Lewisham, Hither Green, Ladywell, Crofton Park, Catford, Bellingham, Southend Village, & Grove Park. Most of the sections can form the basis for an interesting historical & architectural walk. But hurry! One of the old Lewisham buildinhs illustrated here has probably been demolished while you have been reading this! ...
