This work will he prepared
by captain Meriwether Lewis,
and will be divided Into two
parts, the whole comprised in
Three Volumes, octavo, con.
tainining from four to five
hundred pages, each; printed
on good paper, and a fair Pica
type. The several vol
umes in succession will
be put to press at as early
periods as the avocations of
the alithor will permit him to
prepare them for publication.
Part tkc First—in Two Volumes.
Volume first —Will contain
a narrative of the voyage,with a
description of some of the most
remarkable places in those hi
therto unknown wilds of Ame
rica, accompanied by a Map of
good size, ana embellished with
a view of the great Cataract of
the Missouri, the plan, on a large
scale, of the connected falls of
that river, as also, of those of
the falls, narrow's and great ra
pids of the Columbia, with their
several portages. For the in.
formation of future voyagers,
there will be added in the sequel
of this volume, some observati
ons and remarks on the naviga
tion of the Missouri and Colum
bia rivers, pointing out the pre
cautions which must necessarily
be taken, in order to insure suc
cess, together with an itinerancy
of the most direct and practica
ble route across the continent ol
North Ameiica, from the con
fluence oi the Missouri and Mia- j
sissipi rivers to the discharge I
of the Columbia into the Pacific
ocean.
Volume second —Whatever
properly appertains to geography
—embracing a description ol the
rivers, mountains, climate, soil
and face of the country; a view
ol the Indian nations distributed
over that vast region, shewing
their tradition*, habits, maimers,
customs, national character, sta
ture, complexions, dress, dwel
lings, arms, and domestic uten
sils, with many other interesting
particulars in relation to them—
Also, observations and reflecti
ons on the subjects of civilizing,
governing, and maintaining a
Iriendly intercourse with those
nations. A view of the tur trad
ol North America, setting forth a
plan for its extension, and shew
ing the immense ad vantages which
would accrue to the mercantile
interests of the United States, by
combining the same with a direct
trade to llte East Indies, through
the continent of North America.
This volume will be embellished
with a number of plates, illustra
tive of the dress and general ap
pearance of such Indian nations as
oilier materially from each oilier;
of their habitations, their wea
pons and habiliments used in vuir;
their hunting and fishing appara
tus, domestic utensils, Ac. 111

the aajut’.

unknown regions. It will con
tain a full dissertation on such
subjects as have fallen within the
notice of the author, and which
may properly be distributed un
der the heads of botany, mineral
°gv, and zoology, together with
some strictures on the origin 0 f
1 he Prairies, the cause of the mud
illness of the Missouri, of volca
nic appearances, and natural ptio
n omen a, which were met with in
the course of this interesting tout\
—This volume will also contain a
comparative view of twenty-threo
vocabularies of distinct ‘lndian
languages, procured by captains
Lewis and Ciark on die voyage,
and will be ornamented and em
bellished with a much greater
number of plates than will be be
stowed cn the first part of the
work, as it is intended that every
subject of natural history which
is entirely new, and of which
there are a considerable number,
shall be accompanied by an ap
propriate engraving illustrative of
it.
This distribution of the work
hits been made with a view to the
accommodation of every descrip
tion of readers, and is here offer
ed to the patronage of the public
in such shape, that all persons
wishing to become subscribers,
mav accommodate themselves

Knowing u,at a considerable
proportion of the expcnce of such
publications depends on the en
gravings which embellish or form
them, and that the precise iiuim.
ber of such engravings, particu
larly as it regards the second pa>-t
of the work, have not yet been
settled; it is difficult lor the author
at this iqomeut to fix a price 011
them—he therefore declares to
the public, that his late voyage
was not ukeo with a view to |jo-
anti pledges
himself that tne estimate which
he will in tins instance set on lux
literary labours,shall be of the most
moderate description; his. princi
pal reason indeed tor proposing
a subscription at all, is, that he’
may be enabled to form some es
timate of the number ot copies
to be strut k off.
