It Happened on the Lewis and Clark Expedition
Author Erin H. Turner brings to light 44 fascinating events from Meriwether Lewis and William Clark's 1804-1806 expedition from St. Louis to the Pacific Ocean and back, including the first democratic vote west of the Mississippi, the remarkable and unexpected reunion of their Indian guide Sacagawea with the clan brother she hadn't seen in years, the day they found a huge whale on the beach, and their discovery of Carolina parakeets--a now extinct species--west of the Mississippi.

Enjoyed it! Light reading with some history mixed in.
It is a bathroom book that you can read a story or two and walk away.....then pick up in a couple of days and do it again. There are 44 stories in 108 pages of the body of the book, so they are short.
Some interesting tidbits pop out at you as you read. I looked at her bio and I would read more of her work if I ran across one of her books as I did this one.
