Summary Of Discovery: A Memoir By Vernon L. Smith

How accurately does this statement reflect the view of discovery explored in Rainbows End and in the Rabbit Proof Fence?

On May 29, 1805, the night before the Corps entered the White Cliffs, a buffalo bull stampeded into the sleeping camp and rampaged around their fires, narrowly missing the heads of the sleeping explorers. After bending with its hooves, the buffalo was finally chased away by Seaman, Lewis’ dog. One of the men, Sergeant John Ordway, supposed in his own journal that “if he had trod on a man it would have killed him dead.”

You might be wondering”What did they earn out of doing these 2 years of exploration?” Both America and The Corps of Discovery learned about 200+ new plants and animals people at that time didn’t know about. They also learned the geography of the west due to Clark’s mapping.

The document “Lewis and Clark’s Journal of Exploration Excerpt” was written by Lewis and Clark 's in the form of a journal. Meriwether Lewis was a captain of the regular army who had extensive frontier experience. (Lewis, 1) With him would be William Clark, Clark was a former lieutenant in the army who was recommissioned as a commander for the “corps discovery” (Lewis, 1). Along with forty or fifty men. The one thing that made Lewis and Clark different was they were both nature fanatics. Two men with military backgrounds with a love for nature along with forty or fifty other men were set out to go study and strengthen relationships with tribes along the Mississippi river.

On May 14, 1804, Lewis began the expedition with his partner, William Clark, “and their group of 40 men, collectively known as the Corps of Discovery.” They started their expedition at the mouth of the Missouri River, about 18 miles from St. Louis, where they “launched their pirogues and keelboat.” On the day of their launch, Clark wrote this in their journal: “I set out at 4 o’clock P.M. in the presence of many of the Neighbouring inhabitents, and proceeded on under a jentle brease up the Misourie to the upper Point of the 1st Island 4 Miles and Camped on the which is Situated Close on the right (or Starboard) Side, and opposite the mouth of a Small Creek called Cold water, a heavy rain this afternoon.”5 [Lewis, Meriwether, William Clark,

Isaac H. is a well-developed African American that experienced the Great Migration in his lifetime. Growing up poor, Isaac had nine siblings and family throughout the United States. Isaac’s Aunt specifically lived in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and invited Isaac to experience the north at an early age by working there during his summers.The Great Migration was a movement that changed Isaac H.’s life because his family moved to the north and created a foundation for him.This foundation, along with Isaac’s experience, was established by the Blacks who took a risk and moved to the North without a guarantee that there was anything for them .This risk was in the minds of almost 6 million African Americans and they all made a choice that resulted in

On May 14, 1804, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, leaders of the Corps of Discovery, set out on the Missouri River to explore the western world (Petrie 16). Lewis and Clark are greatly known for their expedition through the wild west in order to find a water route to the Pacific Ocean. During the two years and four months that they traveled, Lewis and Clark had to endure many hardships. Some of the hardships Lewis and Clark faced were hostile Indians, harsh weather, rugged terrain, wild animals, injuries and illnesses, and starvation.

Captain John Smith and William Bradford both have similar stories, yet there are differences between both of them. Some similarities both of these stories have in common is that both of the men, Captain John and William Bradford are from England, they also went through starvation and received food from native americans. In the other hand the difference from both stories is that Captain John is in The History Of Virginia and William Bradford was from the Plymouth Plantation. Captain John Smith would sell tobacco in Jamestown, he was selfish, gave no food if there was no work and in the story they did not help each other. William Bradford believed in freedom, had faith to get through the

People always make great discoveries, but they are sometimes caused by mistakes. Mistakes can’t help find discoveries. The real way to make discoveries is through lots of research and years of work. Although mistakes can help find discoveries they often do more damage than helping and can make people lose the trail to artifacts.

Discovery inhibits the ability to embrace new beginnings and accept a sense of change whether it is found or forced upon an individual. The places you travel and the people you meet can emotionally revolutionize a self-discovery through unexpected but anticipated terms evoked from curiosity. ‘Swallow The Air’ written by Tara June Winch and ‘The Thing Around Your Neck’ written by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie break the inhibitions of vulnerability, as their ideas represented through cultural contexts and values, lead to an overall self-discovery.

     The Age of Exploration was a time of struggle and wealth for many European countries. The pursuit of a trade route to the Far East led many countries across the ocean, looking for the great spice cities that were rumored by Marco Polo. These countries knew that whoever found the shortest or best route would become rich, very quickly. Explorers from many European countries embarked on journeys that not even they had any clue where they were going. This search for the Far East led to many discoveries that would otherwise have never been found.

“Today’s living feels like a struggle to survive”,” Money is always a big issue”,” I can’t study if I don’t have the money for it”. That was my way of thinking recently, but a month before this course commenced I started to think differently. I said to myself, “I need to look for more information on how to be able to pay for my studies”, “Student Loans might provide me with the money I need to start studying again”, “I’m going to apply for the President’s Scholarship, writing a 2 page essay explaining why I deserve that scholarship”. My new way of thinking about money brought me my most recent identity as a student in the International Academy of Design and Technology. Then I got my books, including Becoming a Master Student which made me realize even more the power of “Positive Thinking”. Now I know that money may be a primordial need but not an obstacle, that there are resources that can help me achieve my goals. Now I’m confident that by planning ahead and adding additional control to my personal finances I will be able to have enough money to complete my education.

Humanity’s interest in unknown world has been universal and enduring. Accompany with human development, discovery the unknown world has become more and more important to human life. Some people think discovery is a good thing. They will tell you how X-ray used by medical professionals to help diagnose and treat a wide range of medical problems. They will also tell you what a mass your life will be if Benjamin Franklin did not discovered electricity. But other argue people think discovery bring disaster to human. They will tell you if Martin Heinrich Klaproth did not discover uranium, maybe atomic bomb would not been invented. Although the question about whether discovery always a good thing has so many
