About This Item
Text is clean and unmarked. There is a margin crack at the title page, but all pages are firmly attached. Maps are included throughout. Price unclipped DJ is worn around the edges with small chips and closed tears. From the price unclipped DJ, "When the United States purchased the Louisiana territory from France in 1803, our manifest national destiny was established. From that moment the path to our future drove westward across unknown thousands of miles. Thomas Jefferson read the signs with his customary acuteness and in 1804 he commissioned his young secretary, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, both officers in the Army, to explore our new domain by making their way to the sources of the Missouri...to the Pacific coast."
