[American History] Foley, William E.

Wilderness Journey: The Life of William Clark.

Colombia: University of Missouri Press, 2004. First Printing of the First US Edition. A copy in a Fine dust jacket. William Clark—best known as the American explorer who joined Meriwether Lewis in leading an overland expedition to the Pacific—has many more claims to fame than his legendary Voyage of Discovery. Wilderness Journey is the first comprehensive account of Clark’s lengthy and multifaceted life. Following Lewis and Clark’s great odyssey, Clark’s service as a soldier, Indian diplomat, and government official placed him at center stage in the national quest to possess and occupy North America’s vast western hinterland.
