St. Louisans age 50 and older can learn about these two explorers in a two-session class.
Quoting from the fall OASIS catalog:
"Known respectively as 'the greatest real estate deal in history' and the 'Great American Odyssey,' these two topics have endless fascination. In the first week we will put historical puzzle pieces as disparate as a bath, a Haitian general, a virus and flatboats into a picture of the 'real estate deal.' In the second week, secret communiques to Congress and foreign diplomats, faulty maps, eye wash and grizzlies will combine into an engrossing picture of the 'Great American Odyssey.' As with most topics in history, the more you know, the more amazing the story.'
