The Louisiana Purchase and American expansion, 1803-1898
"In this collection, Sanford Levinson and Bartholomew H. Sparrow bring together noted scholars in American history, constitutional law, and political science to examine the role that the Louisiana Purchase played in shaping both the expansionist policies of the nineteenth century and critical interpretations of the Constitution. The Louisiana Purchase and American Expansion, 1803-1898 provides an overview of how the U.S. Constitution and the American political system are inextricably tied to the Louisiana Purchase and the territorial expansion of the United States."--Jacket
