Mapping America’s Future: Lewis & Clark and the Louisiana Purchase | The American Story | Ep 11
A single night of terror in the mountains of Haiti in 1791 ignites a slave revolution that forever alters America’s destiny. This episode follows the astonishing chain of events leading to the Louisiana Purchase, the greatest land deal in American history. Napoleon’s collapsing Caribbean empire, Thomas Jefferson’s constitutional dilemma, and Robert Livingtson’s high-stakes negotiations all collide in a moment that doubles the size of the United States overnight. Then, follow Meriwether Lewis, William Clark, Sacagawea, and the “Corps of Discovery” on their 8,000-mile expedition into the unknown. It’s a story of ambition, survival, discovery, and the complicated growth of a continental nation.
