SUMMARY

Covering an immense space of over 800,000 square miles, the Louisiana Territory was the largest single land acquisition in American history. Its physical contours shaped by nature, the Louisiana Territory has meant many things to many people over the centuries. From prehistoric hunters to modern Americans, human minds have imagined and re-imagined this awesome place, each time creating borders that reflected the observers' interests and agendas. Since the first people inhabited Louisiana, its borders have changed from being symbols of a material relationship with nature to abstract map lines marking out first political, and then ideological, inventions. This book explores the changing visions of the Louisiana Territory and the uniquely human project of creating arbitrary borders. Book jacket.Davenport, John C. is the author of 'Louisiana Territory', published 2005 under ISBN 9780791082560 and ISBN 0791082563.
