In this episode, host Joshua Claybourn, on behalf of the Abraham Lincoln Association, speaks with Craig Fehrman, New York Times bestselling author, about his latest book, This Vast Enterprise: A New History of Lewis & Clark.

Fehrman offers a fresh look at the Lewis and Clark expedition, its place in American memory, and the larger world of exploration, politics, ambition, and empire that shaped it. The conversation explores how the expedition has been remembered, misunderstood, and reinterpreted—and what this new history reveals about the early American republic.
