About This Item
New York, NY: Simon & Schuster, 1994. First Edition, First Printing . Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Text/BRAND NEW. Bi-color boards/Fine. DJ/NF w/faint smudge to upper front; now under mylar. Sticker removal scar to fEP. 1992, 3-month travelogue of W. Hodding Carter and Preston Maybank's modern day re-tracing of Lewis & Clark's historic expedition. Travelling via rubber raft (eventually equipped with a gas engine), afoot, ahorse, with frozen foods, and paths littered w/modern archaelogical droppings of styrofoam cups --- the engine dies and the raft sinks as they approach target destination of Astoria, Washington. If wackiness not your cup of tea, book is balanced & redeemed by incorporation of Lewis and Clark accounts providing concrete historical contrast.
