How the West Was Lost

by Stephen Aron

1999 · JHU Press

'How the West Was Lost' tracks the overlapping conquest, colonization, and consolidation of the trans-Appalachian frontier. Not a story of paradise lost, this is a book about possibilities lost. It focuses on the common ground between Indians and backcountry settlers which was not found.
