How did a bargain redraw the map of a continent and shape the future of the Pacific Northwest? These questions reshaped a continent. In The Louisiana Purchase, And Our Title West Of The Rocky Mountains, Binger Hermann traces the chain of treaties, negotiations, and legal arguments through which the United States claimed territories from the Mississippi to the Pacific. Blending narrative and constitutional argument, this American territorial history book stands as a rigorous historical study of annexation that illuminates early 19th century America, westward expansion politics, and contested Oregon territory claims within the wider currents of manifest destiny and expansion. Written by a land official, this primary source government document offers an insider's view of how Washington understood the Louisiana Purchase history and its implications west of the Rockies. From the Thomas Jefferson Louisiana Purchase to later agreements defining the Pacific Northwest, Hermann sets out the diplomatic precedents underpinning pacific northwest territorial history and the evolving reach of the American republic. Rich in citations and detail, it serves as a trusted reference for history students and invaluable research material for historians of American diplomacy, frontier policy, and constitutional law. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. For readers interested in Louisiana Purchase history, for specialists in westward expansion politics, and for collectors of historical works, this modern edition keeps a pivotal document of American territorial ambition within reach.
