Insight without the Hoopla
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Full disclaimer ... I reviewed this book a decade ago. Back then I thought Furtwangler had written a smart, unpretentious book. I still think that. If you're looking for insight without the same-old-same-old on this tired subject, check out Acts of Discovery. Also check out the collection of essays edited by Kris Fresonke and Mark Spence. Very worthwhile.
Pretty good

This book very well depicts the ways in which Lewis and Clark explored the West. I would reccomend it to anyone who needs straightforward information for a report.
