SUMMARY:We The People: The Lewis and Clark Expedition
DESCRIPTION:\n\nHistorian Randy Baker will portray Sergeant Patrick Gass of
  the Lewis and Clark Expedition\, a carpenter on the journey and the first
  to publish his journal after the expedition. Patrick Gass lived to be 98 
 years old and thus had a better perspective on how the Lewis and Clark Exp
 edition changed the course of American history than any other member on th
 e expedition. Why they went\, what they saw\, who they met\, and what they
  did on this extraordinary adventure into American west is our focus. A wi
 de variety of artifacts utilized throughout the program helps to bring his
 tory to life.  In the year 1800 Meriwether Lewis served as paymaster for 
 Fort Detroit and some of Patrick Gass’ relatives still live here in Mich
 igan. Program length one hour. Families are welcome. This program is best 
 suited for grades 4 through adult.\n\nAbout the Presenter:\n\nRandy Baker
