Synopsis
Covering the years between Washington's inauguration and the first quarter of the 19th century, The New Nation shows how our new government was tested within and without. Events such as the Louisiana Purchase, Lewis and Clark's expeditions, the War of 1812, Tecumseh's effort to form an Indian confederacy, the growth of Southern plantations, and the beginnings of the abolitionist movement made this a turbulent and exciting period in A History of US.

From the Publisher
Beginning with George Washington's inauguration and continuing into the nineteenth century, The New Nation tells the story of the remarkable challenges that the new country faced. Thomas Jefferson's purchase of the Louisiana Territories (bought from France at a mere four cents an acre!), Lewis and Clark's daring expedition through the wilderness, the War of 1812 a.k.a. "Revolutionary War, Part II," Tecumseh's effort to form an Indian confederacy, the growth of Southern plantations, the beginning of the abolitionist movement, and the disgraceful Trail of Tears are just a few of the setbacks, sidetracks, and formidable tasks put in the new nation's path.
