Lewis & Clark - The Journey of the Corps of Discovery

The read

The series ran 1 season across 2 episodes and has finished, so there is no cliffhanger risk.

Synopsis

Lewis & Clark: The Journey of the Corps of Discovery tells the remarkable story of the entire Corps of Discovery – not just of the two Captains, but the young army men, French-Canadian boatmen, Clark’s African-American slave, and the Shoshone woman named Sacajawea, who brought along her infant son. As important to the story as these many characters, however, was the spectacular land itself, and the promises it held.
