Wheeler, Is the well known wrltr of the popular Wonderland series or the Northern Pacific Railway, In connection with which ho made his studies and. researches for this work. Mr. Wheeler has traveled several thousand miles over the route of Lewis and Clark.

Their routo across the Ultterroot mountains lias been followed, Identltled and mapped. "Tho Trail of Lewis and Clark" Is Illustrated In color and half tone from, paintings, drawings and maps, by Paxson, DeCamp, and Russell, made under Mr. Wheeler's direction, and from photographs taken specially for the purpose.
