The author traces the fascinating history of the trans-Mississippi West from its first European exploration in the 16th century through its eventual settlement by westward expansion in the 19th century. Along the way, the author not only recounts pivotal events but also explores the motivations of the explorers, settlers, and politicians of the time period. The book argues for the unique romanticism of the West's history due to its casting of local history against the backdrop of national and international events, and also highlights how the West's history is key to understanding the evolution of the United States as a whole.
