It's an account of the Lewis and Clark Expedition told from the point of 
view of the dog.

(I have to admit, I'm becoming a bit Lewis and Clarked Out.)

Just looked it up...

  Captains Meriwether Lewis and William Clark and 31 other persons comprised 
the "Permanent Party" of the 1804-1806 Lewis and Clark Expedition. Although 
many individuals were associated with the military cadre during its 
1803-1804 initial stages of travel from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to Fort 
Mandan, North Dakota, only those 33 members who journeyed from Fort Mandan 
to Fort Clatsop, Oregon, and returned comprised the Permanent Party. In 
addition, there was a 34th member - Seaman, Captain Lewis' "dogg of the 
Newfoundland breed."

His name was Seaman. And I believe he was either a New Foundland or Mastiff.
Whichever, he was L A R G E.

There used to be a virtual cache called something like "Man's Best Friend".
We logged the L&C sculpture on the St. Charles Riverfront. It's a beautiful
2X life sculpture. If you do the caches in that area check it out. Here's
my log with a bit of research behind it.

There was also a black man, but he only made the Missouri Quarter and NOT
the statue.
