Sight Unseen - Andrew Menard - Bog

- How Fremont's First Expedition Changed the American Landscape

Bag om Sight Unseen

John C. Fremont was the most celebrated explorer of his era. After Congress published Fremont's official report of his 1842 expedition, few doubted the nation should expand to the Pacific. The first in-depth study of this remarkable report, Sight Unseen argues that Fremont used both a radical form of art and an imaginary map to create an aesthetic desire for expansion.
