About this title

Synopsis

Travel planning and history are combined in this informative atlas designed specifically for those who want to follow the route of Lewis and Clark by car. Covering more than 800 destinations in 23 states, from the White House to the Pacific Ocean and from the Canadian border to New Orleans, this guide offers a choice of routes for each featured drive, from interstate highways to scenic byways, that follow the actual historic trail. Each group of attractions has descriptive information on one large-format page, with driving directions and full-color maps on the facing page. A list of 573 expedition campsites is arranged by state and county, and each entry is cross-referenced to the journals of Lewis and Clark. All attractions have hours, prices, phone numbers, and websites listed.
