Description
In the center of North The united states, the Missouri, Ohio, and Mississippi rivers come in combination, uniting waters from west, north, and east on a journey to the south. That is the region that Stephen Aron calls the American Confluence. Aron’s cutting edge book examines the history of that region – a home to the Osage, a colony exploited by the French, a new frontier explored by Lewis and Clark – and makes a speciality of the region’s transition from a spot of overlapping borderlands to one in every of oppositional border states. American Confluence is a full of life account to be able to delight both the amateur and professional historian.
