Sobre este artículo
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1997. First edition. Stated. Presumed first printing. Hardcover. Very good in good dust jacket. "Watch for the PBS Television Series" Sticker on front of DJ. DJ has some wear and soiling.. xx, 248, [2] p. Illustrations (Some in color) Endpaper map. Maps. Bibliography. Illustration Credits. Film Credits. Index. This is based on a documentary file by Ken Burns, written by Dayton Duncan. Preface by Ken Burns. Contributions by Atephen Ambrose, Erica Funkhouser, and WIlliam Least Heat-Moon. They called themselves the Corps of Discovery, yet they would fail to discover the primary object of their mission: the Northwest Passage, a mythical all-river route through the mountains. Instead their real discovery would be the land itself--and the promises it held. This companion volume to Ken Burns' latest PBS film, airing in the fall, imparts all of the adventure, hardship, and triumph of the infamous Lewis and Clark expedition. 150 illustrations, 100 in color.
