The Split History of Westward Expansion Flip Book

American Indians had lived in North America for thousands of years by the time European settlers arrived. The settlers came in search of land and were eager to build farms, roads, and towns. The Indians lived off the land and believed it belonged to everyone. When the U.S. government completed the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, the plan to expand the country to the Pacific Ocean set up a collision course between the two groups’ ways of life. To fully explore this historical time, look no further than this book's fresh take on history. It's like two books in one: start from one end and immerse yourself in one viewpoint. Then flip it over and immerse yourself in another, very different viewpoint. You will come away with deeper understanding of events and history's many perspectives. 64 pages, 6" x 9".
