Book excerpt: Charles Floyd was the only member of Lewis and Clark's 1804 expedition to die in the field. Always fearful of losing and data or observations they collected, the two captains encouraged team members to keep a journal. Charles Floyd's journal was returned to his family and later lost, only to be discovered again in the late 19th century. Here is that journal along with the story of its discovery. Included is a translation of Floyd's extremely inconsistent and challenging spelling, as well as a transcription of his pages as they were written. For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers, tablets, and smartphones.
