Description

Recommended by the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Literacy as an exemplary informational text.

Early nineteenth century The united states could almost about be summed up by Henry David Thoreau’s words when he said, “Eastward I go only by force, but westward I go free.” It was once an exuberant time for the diverse citizens of the US, who included a range of folk, from mountain men and railroad builders to whalers and farmers, as they pushed forward into the open frontier and all their hopes and fears are captured in Liberty for All? Along with colorful accounts of the massive westward migration, the California Gold Rush, a war with Mexico, the Oregon boundary conflict, Texas and the Alamo, Liberty for All? takes a deep take a look at the issue that started to gnaw on the country’s core: How, in the land where “all men are created equal,” could there be slaves?
