Description: |
Beginning with George Washington's inauguration and
continuing into the nineteenth century, The New Nation
tells the story of the remarkable challenges that the freshly
formed United States faced. Thomas Jefferson's purchase of the
Louisiana Territories (bought from France at a mere four cents an
acre!), Lewis and Clark's daring expedition through this
wilderness, the War of 1812 a.k.a. "Revolutionary War, Part II,"
Tecumseh's effort to form an Indian confederacy, the growth of
Southern plantations, the beginning of the abolitionist movement,
and the disgraceful Trail of Tears are just a few of the
setbacks, sidetracks, and formidable tasks put in the new
nation's path. Master storyteller Joy Hakim weaves these dramatic
events and more into a seamless tale that's so exciting, how
could it be true? But it is--it's A History of US.
