Media reviews

“[This] new, magnificent account . . . is full of wonder even for seasoned students of U.S. history.” —The Dallas Morning News

“A vivid, episodic pageant of westward-ho empire building. . . . This is narrative history writ large and vigorously—with foreshadowings of tragedy.” —Publishers Weekly

“In this balanced political and military history, Woodworth tracks political tensions exacerbated by continental expansion. . . . Woodworth dramatically presages the collapse of political parties in the 1850s by his accessible account of the 1840s.” —Gilbert Taylor, Booklist
