Product Description
These six studies from the Walter Prescott Webb Memorial Lectures offer specific treatments of American antebellum expansionism. For example:
Robert W. Johannsen of the University of Illinois at Urbana offers fresh insight into the meaning of the term "Manifest Destiny," arguing for a broader definition.
John M. Belohlavek of the University of South Florida takes a close look at the expansionist attitudes of Massachusetts politician, diplomat, reformer, and intellectual Caleb Cushing.
