It examines the routes taken during these campaigns against the British and Native American resistance, detailing the geographical and strategic considerations involved in these historic military undertakings. The beginning of the work introduces the preface, setting up the context for Clark's campaigns and emphasizing the significance of the routes traversed during these military operations. It discusses the importance of the Old Vincennes Trace and the various paths taken across the challenging landscapes of Illinois, which included swamps and prairies.
