Ugh. Repetitive and tiresome. I'm fascinated by the story and have read a few but for some reason I was thinking this would be somehow different .

A boring journal

[Natalie · Rating 3 out of 5]

Since moving to an area where Lewis and Clark explored I have been interested in their journey. While I am so glad that I read some of their writings I wish I had chose a different ebook. I read the free Kindle book version available. This version is actually journals entries but not all of them. All the journal entries together make for quite a long read. This Volume 1 though only covers part of the trip. I haven't even got to the point where they make it to the ocean! And they don't have Volume 2 in a free version at this time. So I am going to find a different version in which I can finish reading about their trip.
