Hardback. Zustand: Good. Upon America?s 250th anniversary comes the story of a new republic forging unity through ambition and action, inspired by George Washington?s youthful dream to build the nation?s first highway west The National Road is the first narrative history of the federal project?begun decades before the nation itself was born and ranging through the 1830s?that connected the United States across the Alleghenies and into the western frontier. Starting with a young Washington?s dream of uniting the Potomac and Ohio Rivers, historian Brady J. Crytzer traces the political rivalries and engineering marvels that created an artery bringing settlers, ideas, and commerce deep into the American interior. Washington scouted the western frontier as a surveyor and championed a route to unite the fledgling republic. Albert Gallatin, America?s longest-serving treasury secretary, battled political opposition to fund the project. Thomas Jefferson, torn between his agrarian ideals and the demands of a growing nation, ultimately championed the road as a means of securing western lands and extending democratic reach. And Henry Clay harnessed the road to advance his bold American System. With visionaries, rebels, and everyday families seeking the American dream, and featuring congressional showdowns and backroom deals to mountain crossings and frontier towns,The National Road reveals the triumphs and tragedies of an infrastructure saga that helped define the United States.…

In 1775, the British Empire was in crisis, buried in debt from years of combat against the French and facing the growing revolutionary fervor in its North American colonies. To confront the Americans would press their exhausted armed forces to a breaking point so they turned to the armies of the Holy Roman Empire to suppress the sedition. By 1776 there would be 18,000 German forces in North America and by the war's end there would be over 30,000.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In March 1791 Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton shocked the western frontier when he proposed a domestic excise tax on whiskey to balance America's national debt. The law, known colloquially as the 'Whiskey Act,' disproportionately penalized farmers in the backcountry, while offering favorable tax incentives designed to protect larger distillers. Although Hamilton viewed the law as a means of both collecting revenue andforcefully imposing federal authority over the notoriously defiant frontier, settlers in Western Pennsylvania bristled at its passage. They demanded that the law be revoked or rewritten to correct its perceived the injustices, and begged their representatives to lobby Congress on their behalf. As the months passed however the people of Western Pennsylvania grew restless with the inadequacy of the government's response and they soon turned to more violent means of political expression. Treasury officers across the west were targeted for their involvement in the tax collection, and they were brutally attacked by armed bands of disgruntled locals. They were tarred and feathered, burned with hot irons, and whipped; their homes were ransacked and burned. Extralegal courts were established in a direct challenge to federal authority, and the frontier slowly drifted toward a state of rebellion. In response President George Washington raised an army of 13,000 men, one of the largest forces he ever commanded, to suppress the rebellion. No major battle ever occurred, but weeks of arrests, illegal detentions, and civil rights violations rocked the west. The event polarized the nation, and highlighted the dramatic differences between Washington's Federalist perspective and Jefferson's emerging Democratic-Republican Party. Two centuries later the Whiskey Rebellion stands as the second largest domestic rebellion in American History, only outdone by the Confederate States of America in 1861. In The Whiskey Rebellion: A Distilled History of an American Crisis, historian Brady J. Crytzer takes the reader on a journey through Western Pennsylvania following the routes of both the rebels and the United States Army to place this important event into context for the reader. Complete with images and maps, the author illuminates what visitors can still see from the period while providing a cogent and engrossing account of this crisis unfolded and how it was resolved.…
