The Making Of The American West - 1800 To The Present

By Ted Morgan

The second half of Morgan’s state by state building of the United States. He focuses on the stories of particular individuals as they work to make their territory a state. Naturally I have mixed feelings about Manifest Destiny. The book breaks down by the time it gets to Alaska.
