Lewis & Clark Revisited: a Photographer"s Trail

This book of contemporary photographs of sites visited by Lewis & Clark on their Corps of Discovery trip from St. Louis to the Pacific in Oregon in 1804-06 was an ideal traveling companion for my recent cruise from Portland up the Columbia River to the Snake River in Idaho, following in their footsteps, The excerpts from Lewis' and Clark's journals juxtaposed to the photos are fascinating for anyone interested in this epic adventure.

A fine - often thought-provoking - set of images

Another classic guide to Lewis and Clark which stands out from the crowd, Lewis And Clark Revisited: A Photographer's Trail follows the famed explorer's route and packs in a wealth of black and white photos of the Lewis and Clark experience. Almost ten years ago photographer Reg MacGregor began his journey following the Lewis and Clark route, photographing the country along the way. Highly recommended for both simple browing and serious study, Lewis And Clark Revisited provides a fine - often thought-provoking - set of images reflecting a much-changed land since the original expeditions.
