Lewis & Clark¿s expedition to the Pacific Ocean & back in the early 19th century is the most famous journey in American history. But its public image of discovery & triumphant return has veiled its private stories of longing & loss, of self-discovery & mutual ignorance, of good luck & mischance & fortunate misunderstanding. The author became convinced that these half-hidden personal stories could best be told in the intimate voice of fiction. Hall chose to focus on emblematic moments through the whole range of the lives of its participants. ¿Hall has used the novelist¿s art to create a compulsively readable book that fills in the gaps & provides a new perspective on this great American story.¿Hall, Brian is the author of 'I Should Be Extremely Happy in Your Company : A Novel of Lewis and Clark', published 2007 under ISBN 9781422390979 and ISBN 1422390977.
