Lewis & Clark - Westward Expansion
Lewis & Clark's Journey
"One ship stopped to trade with the Indians during the Corps time on the west coast."
The Indians didn't tell anything to Lewis and Clark about it, but if Lewis and Clark did tell them, then they could of got more information with those goods from the Indians.
They thought they were friendly and decided to camp with them but they were wrong, they weren't friendly because the Indians took a pair of rifles and then took half of their horses.
If Lewis and Clark didn't move on then they would have lost supplies but they moved to go to a spot that wasn't spring rains.
They decided to write what they saw so when they come back the people will see how it was over there.
The Corps of Discovery
Thomas Jefferson picked Lewis so that all the information he got to give on what animals do and what kind of plants there are and what they captured.
"Their journals provide a view of nature that is remarkable."
The importance of it is the view so that the people would know or think how it is there.
Charbonneau (Corps of Disc.)
They rely on her because of her translator with the Shoshone, so Lewis concerned about giving birth.
