Land Hunger - Ohio and the Western Frontiers

Land Hunger narrates a history of frontiers in the Ohio Country, the Great Plains, and the Oregon Country. It examines how Native Americans, African Americans, and Euro Americans interacted on important US frontiers and viewed, used, and adapted to environments new to them, just as present-day Americans are having to adapt to climate change.
