内容説明

Amy Greenberg examines the social, cultural and political context that gave rise to Manifest Destiny- one of the most influential ideologies in American history. Drawing on primary documents, she explores how it evolved from colonial roots to become a fully articulated rationale in the 1840s for expanding the nation's borders.
