Or Perish in the Attempt: The Hardship and Medicine of the Lewis and Clark Expedition
David J. Peck
Ingeniously combines the remarkable adventures of Lewis and Clark with an examination of the health problems their expedition faced. Formidable problems indeed, but the author patiently, expertly - and humorously - guides us through the medical travails of the famous journey, juxtaposing treatment then against remedy now.
