(Oxford University Press, Dec. 15, 1994)
Covering the years between Washington's inauguration and the first quarter of the 19th century, The New Nation shows how our new government was tested within and without. Events such as the Louisiana Purchase, Lewis and Clark's expeditions, the War of 1812, Tecumseh's effort to form an Indian confederacy, the growth of Southern plantations, and the beginnings of the abolitionist movement made this a turbulent and exciting period in A History of US.
