Have you heard of the journey of Lewis and Clark?  This is the story told in blank verse through the voices of fourteen alternating narrators.  Not only are the main characters represented, but even their dog has his say in this volume.  As a matter of fact, the dog has a lot to say.  Don't let the size of this book put you off.  It is truly worth reading and you won't be disappointed.
