About This Item
Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1979. Hardcover in Slip Case. Near Fine. Drawing on an impressive collection of material--including many previously unpublished plans, surveys, and maps--John Reps shows that towns and cities, rather than farms and ranches, were in the vanguard of frontier settlement. In fact, he finds that the establishment of urban communities stimulated the opening of the West to agriculture." 827 pages slipcase box shows a little wear along edges.; 10 1/2 x 10 1/2
