Synopsis

Many books have been written that retell the Lewis and Clark adventure story. They are mostly "following the trail today" format and use copious quotes from the Captains' journals. A DARLING PROJECT takes a different approach. This is a series of 29 articles using modern writing that give an overview of the Expedition's trip. Each article is given a location and a beginning and ending date so the reader can follow the Expedition's progress on the map and the calendar. This technique is used to overcome the larget problems readers face when reading about Lewis and Clark; sense of geography, sense of time, and comprehending their antiquated writing. Related material has been inserted to further explain key aspects of the journey so the reader gets a much broader exposure to the Expedition and its scientific data gathering work. This book is more than just the rather mundane adventure story.
