Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After political defeats and the loss of half his capital in a ranching venture in North Dakota, Theodore Roosevelt began writing his ambitious history of the conquest of the American West in 1888. He projected a sweeping drama, well documented and filled with Americans fighting Indian confederacies north and south while dealing with the machinations of the British, French, and Spanish and their sympathizers. Roosevelt wanted to show how backwoodsmen such as Daniel Boone and Simon Kenton, followed by hardy pioneer settlers, gave the United States eventual claim to land west of the Alleghanies. Heroism and treachery among both the whites and the Indians can be seen in his rapidly shifting story of a people on the move. By force and by treaty the new nation was established in the East, and when the explorers and settlers pushed against the Mississippi, everything west of the river was considered part of that nation. This final volume spans the period that saw Kentucky, Tennessee, and Ohio become states; Louisiana, Indiana, and Mississippi, territories. The successful campaigns of General Anthony Wayne and others intimidated the Indians into the first peace the border had known in fifty years. The treaties of John Jay and Thomas Pinckney firmed American boundaries and stopped the intrigues of the British and Spanish. As in the other volumes, Roosevelt ties many-sided events into an exciting narrative. He describes in detail the Lewis and Clark Expedition to the Pacific following the Louisiana Purchase.

Book excerpt: The Winning of the West: Louisiana and the Northwest, 1791-1807 by Theodore Roosevelt is a meticulously researched and engagingly written account of the westward expansion of the United States during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Roosevelt's literary style is characterized by a combination of historical analysis and vivid storytelling, making the complex events of this period accessible to readers of all levels. The book provides insight into the geopolitical dynamics of the time, exploring the ambition, determination, and conflicts that shaped the nation's territorial growth. It examines the challenges and triumphs of pioneering settlers, Native American tribes, and European powers vying for control of the newly expanded territories. Roosevelt's comprehensive approach offers a nuanced understanding of the complexities of westward expansion in this critical period of American history. As a renowned historian, conservationist, and statesman, Theodore Roosevelt drew upon his deep knowledge of American history and his personal experiences to write The Winning of the West. His passion for the natural world and his dedication to preserving America's wilderness informed his perspective on the westward expansion and its impact on the environment. Roosevelt's political career and his leadership in the progressive movement also influenced his exploration of the historical forces that shaped the nation's development. I highly recommend The Winning of the West: Louisiana and the Northwest, 1791-1807 to readers interested in American history, frontier narratives, and the legacy of westward expansion. Roosevelt's insightful analysis and engaging prose make this book a must-read for anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and triumphs of the American frontier.

This book was released on 2018-07-06 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Winning of the West, Volume 4 Louisiana and the Northwest, 1791-1807 by Theodore Roosevelt The backwoods folk, the stark hunters and tree-fellers, and the war-worn regulars who fought beside them in the forest, pushed ever westward the frontier of the Republic. Year after year each group of rough settlers and rough soldiers wrought its part in the great epic of wilderness conquest. The people that for one or more generations finds its allotted task in the conquest of a continent, has before it the possibility of splendid victory, and the certainty of incredible toil, suffering, and hardship. The opportunity is great indeed; but the chance of disaster is even greater. Success is for a mighty race, in its vigorous and masterful prime. It is an opportunity such as is offered to an army by a struggle against a powerful foe; only by great effort can defeat be avoided, but triumph means lasting honor and renown. As it is in the battle, so it is in the infinitely greater contests where the fields of fight are continents, and the ages form the measure of time. In actual life the victors win in spite of brutal blunders and repeated checks. The Grimness and Harshness of Frontier Life.
