Описание:

Alabama endured warfare, slave trading, squatting, and speculating on its path to becoming Americas 22nd state, and Daniel S. Dupre brings its captivating frontier history to life in Alabamas Frontiers and the Rise of the Old South. Dupres vivid narrative begins when Hernando de Soto first led hundreds of armed Europeans into the region during the fall of 1540. Although this early invasion was defeated, Spain, France, and England would each vie for control over the areas natural resources, struggling to conquer it with the same intensity and ferocity that the Native Americans showed in defending their homeland. Although early frontiersmen and Native Americans eventually established an uneasy truce, the region spiraled back into war in the nineteenth century, as the newly formed American nation demanded more and more land for settlers. Dupre captures the riveting saga of the forgotten struggles and savagery in Alabamas--and Americas--frontier days.
