When Meriwether Lewis, William Clark, and the Corp of Discovery left St. Louis, Missouri on May 21, 1804, their mission was to explore the vast unknown territory acquired a year earlier in the Louisiana Purchase. The travelers hoped to find a waterway that crossed the western half of the United States. They didn’t. However, young readers will love this true-life adventure tale of the two-year journey that finally brought the explorers to the Pacific Ocean.
