Review 27: The Essential Lewis And Clark

Very good if you just want to hit the highlights of their trip. At times the details are prosaic, but there is always a fascinating quality to even the most day-to-day tasks. Especially good is Clark's recollection on his life, and how he desires to live for 'the good of mankind.' Also good is a glimpse into paganism among native americans. Not quite the idyllic world of peace envisioned by James Cameron in Avatar.

One sad note is the liscentiousness that was allowed in the party.
