Lewis and Clark were able to overcome the obstacles of unknown
territory and potentially dangerous encounters with American
Indians to open the way for settlers to begin the westward
expansion to the Pacific Ocean. The Lewis and Clark’s expedition
originated in the mind of President Thomas Jefferson as a way to
make scientific and geographic observations about the lands of the
new Louisiana Purchase. Author Judith Edwards highlights the
extraordinary spirit of courage and cooperation that existed among
the members of the famous expedition.
