Adventures Across America

"A travel guide with a twist. As the author road trips into history across America following the 1804-06 trail of Lewis and Clark, from St. Louis, Missouri, to the Pacific Ocean, she weaves the exciting story of their discoveries through the newly acquired Louisiana Territory and beyond, into her adventures on and off the trail. In addition to visiting many exceptional Lewis and Clark sites and the rivers they traveled, she explores a wealth of scenic wonders and cultural and historic locations. Included are national parks, Native American reservations, state capitols, museums, monuments, rivers, cities, gardens, and unique "off the beaten path" attractions. She relates stories about the interesting locals she meets as she travels the highways, byways and waterways of America. A book for the arm-chair traveler and history buff, and an unofficial reference guide for many interesting and unusual sites across the United States. Come along and take an enlightening trip through America, past and present, in this thoughtful narrative which includes over 130 of the author's photographs"--
