"Those who have read and admired Steven E. Ambrose's "Undaunted Courage" will be moved by this photographic depiction of Lewis and Clark's Journey of Exploration. The photography is incredibly vivid, and romantically evokes the magic of the western American landscape. A masterful piece of work."
A true journey and labor of love. Mr. Mack captures the beauty, serenity, and majesty of our country and shares with us the magic of that courageous expedition. A brilliant concept, captured by a gifted photographer!
From the Media -
"The Lewis and Clark Trail: American Landscapes is a 256-page full-color slab of a book. It's a rapturous representation of the American landscape, seen both in grand wide-angle vistas and in the surfaces of wildflowers and water. It's a book that John Muir would've liked."
"A beautiful book of photographs of the Lewis & Clark Trail"
"Nobody else has done this book... A fabulous and beautiful book about photography & history."
"This book is absolutely gorgeous!"
"This is one of the best books on the trail. Richard's photography makes you feel like you are right on the trail with Lewis & Clark!"
