When Mackay and Evans returned to Spanish St. Louis in 1797, they were hailed as "the two most illustrious travelers in the northern parts of this continent", and their findings were responsible for much of the early success of Lewis and Clark. W. Raymond Wood tells the story of this long-forgotten but important expedition up the Missouri River.
