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 earl)
periods as the avocations of
the author will permit him to
prepare them for publication.
Part the 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 ot
good size, anti embellished with
a view of the great Cataract of
the Missouri, the plan, cn a large
scale, of the connected falls of
that river, as also, of those of
the falls, narrows 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 ot
North America, from the con
fluence of the Missouri and Mis
sissipi rival w to the discharge
of the Columbia into the Pacific
ocean.
Volume second —Whatever
properly appertains to geography
—embracing a description of the
rivers, mountains, climate, soil
and face of the country; a view
of the Indian nations distributed
over that vast region, shewing (
their traditions, habits, manners,
customs, national character, sta
ture, complexions, dress, duel
lings, arms, and domestic uten

particulars in relation to them
Also, observations and reflecti
ons on the subjects of civilizing,
governing, and maintaining a
Iriemiiy intercourse with those
nations. A view of the fur trade
of North America, setting forth a
plan fin its extension, and shelv
ing the immense ml vantages which
would accrue to the mercantile
interests of the United States, by
combining the same with a direct
trade to the East Indies, through
the continent of North America.
This volume will be embellished
with a number of plates, illustra
tive of tiie dress and general ap
pearance of such Indian nations as
differ materially from each other; I
of their habitations, their wea- j
pons and habiliments used in war;
their hunting and fishing appara
tus, domestic utensils, &c. Jn
an appendix there will also be <>i
ven a diary of the weather, kept
with great attention throughou
the wliole ot the voyage, shew”

unknown regions. It will con.
tain a lull dissertation on such
subjects as have fallen within the
notice of the author, and which
may properly be distributed un
der the heads ot boianv, mineral
ogy, and zoology, together with
soyie strictures on the origin L >f
die Prairies, the cause of die mud
dintss of the Missouri, of volca
nic appearances, and natural phe
nomena, which were met with in
‘be course of this interesting tour

vocabularies of distinct Indian
languages, procured by captains
Lewis and Chirk on the vovage.
am! will be ornamented and cm
bellisned witfi a. much greater
number of plates than will be be
stowed on the first part of the
work, as it is intended that every
subject, of natural history w hich
is entirely new, and of winch
there are a considerable number,
shall be accompanied bv an ap
propriate engraving illustrative of
it.
This distribution of the work
has been made with a view 10 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,
may accommodate themselves
with either of the (tarts, or the
cup re work, as it shall be most
convenient to themselves.

tiie best maps now extant as well

th&collcctive information of the

Knowing that a considerable
proportion of the expence of such
publications depends on the en
gravings which embellish or form
them, and that the precise? num„
her of such engravings, particu
larly as it regards (lie second pa p t.
of the work, have not vei been
settled; it is difficult for the author
at this moment to fix a price ou
them—’he therefore declares to
the public, that Ins late voyage
was not taken with a view to pe
cuniary advantages, and pledges
himself that the estimate winch
he will in tills instance set cn Ins
literary labours,shall be of the most
moderate desciiption; his princi
pal reason indeed tor proposing
a subscription at all, is, ti.at he
may be enabled to form some cs
-of die number of copies
