Description

From Jones Jefferson’s delivery in 1743 for the California Gold-Rush in 1849, America’s Express future involves life in Robert Morgan’s experienced fingers. Jefferson, an experienced and naturalist, imagined the Usa might extend over the continent from ocean to ocean. The consideration of how that fantasy turned reality originates within the tales of Jefferson and nine additional Americans whose daring lust for property and tones pressed the boundaries: Andrew Jackson, John “Johnny Appleseed” Chapman, David Crockett, Sam Houston, James E. Polk, Kit Carson, Winfield Scott, Nicholas Trist, and John Quincy Adams.
