I wrote this book to describe events in the 1800s. I wanted to explore the time when settlers came to live west of the Mississippi River. You may know of people such as Daniel Boone, but there are other important figures. European explorers and conquistadors also played important roles in creating what became the United States. For example, have you head of Alexander Mackenzie or Francisco Vazquez de Coronado?
