| Summary | "The Conquest: The True Story of Lewis and Clark" by Eva Emery Dye is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The narrative explores the well-known expedition of Lewis and Clark, detailing their remarkable journey through the American wilderness as they seek to map uncharted territories. The book likely delves into the characters of Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, providing readers with an insight into the trials and tribulations they faced during this monumental endeavor. The opening of the work sets the stage for the historical backdrop of the early American frontier, introducing significant figures such as Governor Lord Dunmore and frontiersman Daniel Boone amid rising tensions with Native American tribes. The narrative kicks off with political strife in Virginia, capturing the mounting conflict between colonists and Indigenous tribes while foreshadowing the significance of the westward expansion. It highlights the urgency for military action, notably the call to arms led by figures like Andrew Lewis. Through a mixture of personal ambitions and the nation's growing pains, the early chapters intertwine the birth of new heroes with the intricate tapestry of early American history.
