Native Americans and the New American Government: Treaties and Promises (Life in the New American Nation)

Discusses the treaties and battles between Native Americans and settlers of European descent during the early years of the United States, as well as the government's effort to end the violence by creating reservations.

As land acquisition on the frontier of America continued, the vast expanse of the nation continued to be uninhabitable and difficult to travel. As trade routes opened, and railroads grew, the beginnings of groundbreaking transportation opened the frontiers. This is the fascinating story of the origins of modern transportation, detailing how roads, canals, and railroads were built, who built them, and how the presence of these new modes of transportation changed life in America.

New Roads, Canals, and Railroads in Early 19th-Century America (Life in the New American Nation)

There is a long and complex history surrounding the plight of Native Americans in the United States. Culturally so different from the Europeans that settled our country, Native Americans found their lives drastically changed from the moment the first settler set foot in the new land. Primary source material and fascinating images are used to examine the Europeans' early interaction with the Native Americans, focusing on the treaties and the promises made in an effort to help the situation, but which often failed.

Explores the beginnings of modern transportation in the nineteenth century, when the influx of immigrants required better roads, safe water routes, and railroads to be built across the United States.
