set out on this three-hundred-mile journey, and didn’t want to see him go. The three-hundred-mile journey was long and over hard and rugged country, but he loved every minute of it. He felt a sense that he was finally getting closer to what he had been searching for……life on the range. The frontier where they were headed was known for its violence, so the thought of anyone going there was concerning. Over the previous thirty years it had been one of the deadliest places on the frontier, and although the threat had dissipated some with the end of the Red River Campaign, violent raids from Comanche Indians and outlaw bandits were still a common occurrence. Not all of the Indians had been killed or captured, and it was still not uncommon for them to sneak off the reservation and conduct raids. A majority of the raids on the northwestern frontier were believed to be conducted by Comanche and Kiowa from the Fort Sill reservation in the Indian Territory, but non-reservation Comanche were also suspected, and they inhabited the Llano Estacado, just west of where they were headed. Jeff was desiring dangerous adventure, and working with the Saw-Horned Cattle Company didn’t just make it a possibility, it was a…

**Along the way, Edward and Hunt's shared journey helps Edwards shed his aristocratic ways and learns friendship and honor, as well as a more humble view of a world he thought he understood. Hunt finds true friendship in Edwards and a sense of self-confidence he had not known before (so poetic, right? I took this from Wikipedia...I’ll cite it at the bottom**) After many setbacks, they eventually make it to the Pacific coast just minutes before Lewis and Clark's expedition. Once the celebration is over, however, they find that they don't want to go back to their old lives and both decide to continue their adventure. This means that technically Lewis and Clark won, meaning they got the credit. Crazy, huh?…
3, what incidents and/or information might have led Lewis and Clark to the conclusion that of September 27? Captain Lewis with a guard, still on shore, the man who steered, not being much accustomed to steer, passed the bow of the boat, and the pirogue came broadside against the cable and broke it, which obliged me to order, in a loud voice, all hands up and at their oars.…

Making there way across thousands of miles of hostile and unknown terrain, up the Missouri River, they finally reached the Rocky Mountains. This was a difficult trip, due to exhausting heat, injuries, insects and difficulties with the rivers current. Glad, yes they were to be at this far into their journey but getting across the mountains was the hardest part of the entire trip. The trails were narrow and rocky, which made it very hard for the horses to walk up the path and many supplies were lost along the way. When Lewis and Clark came out of the mountains they had a friendly encounter with the Nez Perce Indians and traded for more supplies. During the expedition Lewis and Clark would journal, draw maps, and learn more geography from what the Indians had told the two of them. After a long journey, down treacherous waters, and more friendly encounters with Indians the explorers reached the Pacific Coast. Now the expedition is crossing the Continental Divide through Lemhi Pass. This led them to Clearwater River on Idaho, which then led down Clearwater, Snake, and Columbian Rivers all the way to the…
It was November 16,1910, America was going to war with Spain regarding the ownership of Cuba and many men were getting drafted into the military. There were two husbands, in particular, that got drafted, named Thomas Detrain and Jonathan Baker.

Subsequently after the veterans returned, some of the men desperately wanted to talk to someone about what they¡¦d been through, but they were hardly ever asked due to the unpopularity of the war. Those that were, often struggled to find the words. Besides, how could anyone who hadn¡¦t been there understood what they¡¦d seen and felt?…
