March 02, 2005

A Brigham Young University alumnus and former editor for McGraw-Hill will speak at 7 p.m. Wednesday, March 9, in the Harold B. Lee Library regarding his latest book, "The Fate of the Corps," as part of the annual William Howard and Hazel Butler Peters Lecture.

Larry Morris' book published by Yale University Press traces the lives of more than 30 members of the Lewis and Clark expedition following their return from the Pacific Coast.

The William Howard and Hazel Butler Peters lectureship was established to bring distinguished scholars to BYU for presentations on the West.

The lecture is sponsored by the Charles Redd Center for Western Studies. For more information contact Kris Nelson, BYU Charles Redd Center, at (801) 422-4048.
