Description and Table of Contents
Description
Former secretary of the interior and native westerner Stewart L. Udall draws on extensive research and his vast knowledge of and experience in the American West to offer a provocative new look at one of the most important chapters of American history. He presents a fascinating and wide-ranging overview of western history and those who have written about it, challenging conventional wisdom on subjects ranging from Manifest Destiny to the importance of Eastern capitalists to the role of religion in westward settlement.
