The real Lewis and Clark story—told from the journals

In 1804, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark set out with the Corps of Discovery on one of the most ambitious journeys in American history—traveling thousands of miles up rivers, across sweeping plains, and over towering mountains to reach the Pacific.

What they found was more than hardship. Yes, the expedition faced hunger, brutal weather, powerful currents, and exhausting terrain. But the journals also capture moments of wonder and humor, friendships forged under pressure, and hard-earned cooperation with Native nations that made the journey possible. From the first push up the Missouri to the breathtaking crossing of the Rockies, this is a story of discovery, courage, and the everyday grit of ordinary men doing something extraordinary.

Drawn directly from the explorers’ own journals, True Adventures of Lewis and Clark is a fast-moving, illustrated account that places you alongside the Corps—through close calls and quiet triumphs, tense moments and unforgettable landscapes.

Inside you’ll experience:

• The thrill of pushing upriver into the unknown
• Awe-filled encounters with wildlife and vast new country
• The Bitterroot crossing—one of the expedition’s hardest tests
• How Sacagawea helped shape key moments and encounters
• The diplomacy, teamwork, and leadership that kept the Corps together

If you want the Lewis and Clark story as the men lived it—adventure, hardship, humor, and hope—this is the journey.
