Synopsis

This book is an extensive exploration of the culture, society, and history of Cincinnati, Ohio, in the early 19th century. The author chronicles the settlement and rapid growth of this city and discusses its role as a hub for Western trade and navigation, due to its ideal location on the Ohio River. Providing insightful details about the founding of several key institutions in Cincinnati, including the University of Cincinnati and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, the book argues that this city's rich history has given rise to its prominence as a major cultural and economic center in the Midwest.
