Description:
"OR PERISH IN THE ATTEMPT...WILDERNESS MEDICINE IN THE LEWIS AND CLARK EXPEDITION"
by David J. Peck, D.O.
Foreword by Moira Ambrose
The definitive book on the epic journey and exploration of Captains Meriwether Lewis and William Clark and the Corps of Discovery from 1803-1806 and the wilderness and medical aspects of this incredible journey. Dr. Peck practices as an urgent care physician for a large multi-specialty medical group in San Diego and his clinical experience and sense of humor are added to this fascinating account. Here’s what others have said about “Or Perish In The Attempt.”
“This book holds up our national epic to the light of modern medical knowledge to the wonder, delight, and gratitude of the reader. Read it for the thrill!
Moira Ambrose
“Dr. Peck-an avowed devotee of Lewis and Clark-takes a new look at the myriad dangers faced by the explorers on a daily basis on their trek into the Western wilderness. What he finds is altogether revealing, instructive, and entertaining. One of the most rewarding reads of the Bicentennial!
Dave Walter, Research Historian
Montana Historical Society.
“Dr. Peck has created a vivid, amusing and informative narrative spiked with a sardonic wit that underscores his enthusiasm for the Corps of Discovery.”
Desmond Kidd, M.D.
Former Medical Director, Yosemite National Park
