Does a deep dive on major contributors in our Country‘s Growth and “western” expansion.
Tennessee is well represented
in the Book. Old Hickory. Davey Crockett. Sam Houston. Andrew Polk.
Very balanced book with Multiple perspectives.
Fascinating angle on Texas (Mexican Controlled) and Oregon (British Controlled).
That mass immigration and population growth in those areas (and southeast before both) led to American Government to act & resolve. Makes it easier to take/defend when thousands of citizens now live in the area to take up the cause. Makes you wonder why Dems (& EU) all want open borders and mass immigration Around the world. One of few books at airport that wasn’t written by an anti Trumper, deep stater or social justice focused. Also Mexico‘s leadership & constant dysfunction led to many easy wins in key battles (post Alamo) For the US. Long live General Santa Ana Lol.
