Description
In life and in death, fame and glory eluded Zebulon Pike (1779-1813). The ambitious young military officer and explorer, best know for a mountain peak that he neither scaled nor named, was destined to live in the shadows of more famous contemporaries - explorers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. This collection of thought-provoking essays rescues Pike from his undeserved obscurity by providing a nuanced assessment of Pike and his actions within the larger context of American imperial ambition in the time of Jefferson.
