"Undaunted Courage" is a great book on Lewis and Clark if you are into history. Written by the late, ivory-tower, ultra-liberal, McGovern-lover, Nixon-hater Stephen Ambrose... but I don't hold that against him. I can get past that and appreciate what he wrote. His research staff didn't get enough credit though for his success.

Didn't Stephen Ambrose run into trouble for plagiarism or something lately? That book sounds interesting, but the fact that John Kerry listed it as the last book he was reading makes me hesitate.
