Lewis & Clark Expedition - Text on back: The Lewis and Clark Expedition, 1804 through 1806. The Lewis and Clark Expedition (properly known as the Corps of Discovery) was commissioned by President Thomas Jefferson in 1802. Meriwether Lewis and William Clark led this two-year exploration of the Northwest, beginning May 21, 1804 and ending September 23, 1806. The journey proved valuable in documenting the geography and people of the land newly acquired by the United States through the Louisiana Purchase.
