UNFINISHED JOURNEY: THE LEWIS AND CLARK EXPEDITION is an innovative, 13-part radio series commemorating the 200th anniversary of the Lewis and Clark expedition. Host Peter Coyote guides listeners through the profound impact the expedition has had on American history - and most interestingly, how it greatly affects our lives even today. Aaron Meyer and Bill Lamb composed the original soundtrack for the series.

Each episode of UNFINISHED JOURNEY explores a different subject related to the expedition. Meriwether Lewis, William Clark and Sacagawea are each the focus of a program that examines in-depth their roles in the expedition and how history has judged them in the ensuing 200 years. Longstanding controversies over America's post-independence expansion and the effect on the sovereignty of American Indian tribes are debated in another program. We also look at the events and achievements of daily life in the Corps and among the tribes they met. You'll hear the jokes and music expedition members may have shared, and you'll learn how the scientific observations Lewis and Clark made contributed to the intellectual resources of a young nation. Leading Lewis and Clark scholar Clay Jenkinson concludes each program with a thoughtful essay on the major themes of the subject at hand.

In addition to the full audio episodes, on this special DVD-ROM you’ll find bonus multimedia content from the series for further exploration.
