Zebulon Pike; the life and times of an adventurer

About this book

Zebulon Pike, at the time of Lewis and Clark, led his own expeditions into the hostile territory of the unexplored west. He was a man of great courage but his countrymen suspected that he had conspired with Aaron Burr and General James Wilkinson to hand western land over to the Spanish government of Mexico. He failed to achieve the honor and recognition he craved.
