"Ingenious. A magnificent scholarly achievement. A sweeping new narrative account ofwestern] history. A book to ponder and plunder." --Virginia Scharff, Western Quarterly Review "Not only well researched and presented but instantly absorbing." --Adrienne Caughfield, Journal of American History Pulitzer Prize nominee and winner of the Bancroft Prize--historical writing's most prestigious award-- Empires, Nations, and Families is an epic work of American History that fills in the blanks on the map of the American West between 1800 and 1860. Historian Anne F. Hyde--author of An American Vision: Far Western Landscape and National Culture and co-author (with William Deverell) of The West in the History of the Nation --tells a riveting true story of Native Americans, entrepreneurs, fur trappers and fur traders in a vibrant "wilderness" to which Daniel Boone himself was a Johnny-come-lately.
