Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex relationship between environment and human activity during the mid-19th century. The author illustrates how slavery, industrialization, and territorial expansion deeply informed the development of the American landscape and its resources. Responding to a sense of both national ambition and impending civil conflict, the author argues that Americans increasingly saw the country's physical environment as a battleground for moral and political values. Shifting attitudes towards nature, agriculture, and climate are here examined in depth, offering fresh insights into American history and culture.
