摘要

Thus wrote Captain William Clark on May 14th 1804. He and Captain Meri-wether Lewis had spent the winter of 1803-04 at Camp Dubois near the mouth of the Missouri preparing for this day. They had been commissioned by Thomas Jefferson, "that Great Chaructor, the Main Spring" of the expedition, to explore the Louisiana Purchase, the land between the Mississippi and the Rockies. That day, their Corps of Discovery rowed up the muddy current of the Missouri and into history. Two hundred years later, 25m to 30m people-up to one in seven adult Americans-are expected to retrace part of their journey. Schools are holding special trips. The Mint is issuing coins. The National Council of the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial is running a huge exhibition. Unlike the 500th anniversary of Columbus's voyage, overshadowed by objections from American Indians, the bicentennial of Lewis and Clark will be in proportion to its huge popular appeal.
