Guide Description

Volume 1: The Adventure Begins
St. Louis–Kansas City
States: Illinois, Missouri, Kansas

Written by Laura Reeves Produced and Narrated by Peter B. Lewis

We offer a brief background of Jefferson’s desire to establish an overland route for trade to the western ocean, his relationship with Lewis, Clark’s military ancestry and Lewis’s prior military experience with Clark and how the Louisiana Purchase fit into the political maneuverings of France, Spain and England. We’ll describe the winter spent training at Camp Dubois and the military order established there. Visitors will be directed to historical sites in the vicinity and along the road as they near present-day Kansas City. River rats describe navigating the Missouri two hundred years ago and the stress and strain of poling upstream.
