Acquisition of Oregon: And the Long Suppressed Evidence About Marcus Whitman; Volume 2 (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781020770708)

In this compelling and well-researched account, William Isaac Marshall examines the complex history of the acquisition of Oregon by the United States in the mid-19th century. Drawing on a variety of sources, Marshall sheds new light on the role of missionaries, including Marcus Whitman, in the process, and challenges many of the prevailing myths about this crucial period in American history.
