Review of Stephen Long and American Frontier Exploration By Roger L. Nichols and Patrick L. Halley
Date of this Version
1996
Abstract
Stephen Long and American Frontier Exploration is an excellent narrative of early nineteenth- century expeditions. It is enjoyable reading, and its information is particularly valuable for those interested in early westward expansion. The volume is also of importance to scholars studying other members of Long's expeditions, including Titian Peale, since it gives the historical context in which their work was done.
