In This Remote Country

- French Colonial Culture in the Anglo-American Imagination, 1780-1860

Bag om In This Remote Country

When Anglo-Americans looked west after the Revolution, they hoped to see a blank slate to build their republic. But, French settlers had inhabited the territory. Images of these French settlers saturated every American text. This work argues that these representations played a significant role in developing the identity of the new nation.
