Independent historian Moore and artist Haynes have collaborated on an illustrated history of the clothing, weaponry, and army life of the Lewis & Clark expedition. Their extensive research and their interest in living- history is evident both in text and illustration, which describe the background to the expedition and details of the soldiers' life such as food, medical care, discipline, hairstyles, and most of all clothing. Haynes' finely rendered line drawings and paintings of shirts, vests, jackets, breeches, dress uniforms, insignia, hats, footwear, and cold weather gear, are combined with photographs of relics, and reproductions of illustrations from that time period. The shape of the book is almost square (10.75x10.25"). Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Robert J.
