The American Elsewhere: Adventure and Manliness in the Age of Expansion
Jimmy L. Bryan
A study of US expansionism from 1815-1848, The American Elsewhere delves into the ""adventurelogues"" of the era to reveal the emotional world of men who sought escape from the anonymity of the urban East and pressures of the Market Revolution. As volunteers, trappers, traders, or curiosity seekers, they stepped into ""elsewheres,"" distant and dangerous.
