‘The Great Expedition’ and its impact on Arkansas

Three original Louisiana Purchase Treaty documents from the National Archives and Records Administration are on display at the Clinton Presidential Center. “The Great Expedition: Exploring the Louisiana Purchase and its Impact on Arkansas” will tell the remarkable story of the most important land deal in American history – one that ultimately created the state of Arkansas.

“The Louisiana Purchase Treaty symbolizes the bold and aspiring spirit of the American people,” said Archivist of the United States David S. Ferriero. “We are pleased to make the Louisiana Purchase Treaty documents available to the American people.”

The exhibit will run through March 4.
