Beskrivelse af Opening A Highway To The Pacific, 1838-1846 (1921)
""Opening A Highway To The Pacific, 1838-1846"" is a historical non-fiction book written by James Christy Bell and originally published in 1921. The book chronicles the efforts of American explorers and politicians to establish a land route to the Pacific Ocean in the mid-19th century. Bell provides a detailed account of the various expeditions, including those led by John C. Fr�����mont, Stephen W. Kearny, and the ill-fated Donner Party. He also examines the political and economic factors that drove the push for a transcontinental highway, including the desire for territorial expansion and the need for faster transportation of goods and people. Overall, ""Opening A Highway To The Pacific, 1838-1846"" offers a comprehensive look at a pivotal period in American history and the challenges and triumphs of those who sought to connect the East and West Coasts of the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
