Lewis & Clark Adventures in Cookery

                                                                 by Collie Smith

When President Thomas Jefferson sent Lewis, Clark and a small company of soldiers into uncharted territory, he hoped they would return with information about the land, wildlife, plants, weather and even a few dinosaur bones.  They returned with samples and seeds, maps and journals and a amazing amount of information to share with their countrymen.  They relied upon the many native tribes they met for food and guidance across forest, plains, rivers and mountains.   The 46 recipes in this book illustrate some of the group's experiences and the influence their discoveries would have on American cooking.
