Why did Lewis choose Clark for the expedition?

Thomas Jefferson had dreamed of exploring the West for at least 20 years before he even became President. In 1783 he had asked William Clark's brother, George Rogers Clark, to take on the challenge. George declined, and after the Louisiana territory was purchased, Jefferson asked Lewis. Clark would meet Lewis at Camp Dubois and introduce himself as the brother of George Rogers Clark. William had plenty of experience concerning boat navigation and had gathered a group of men to join. Lewis accepted his offer, not only for the extra manpower, but Clark would also help keep the journals and notes updated.
