Would You Make the Deal of the Century?

Should the United States expand across the continent of North America or stay a small country? That was the big question in 1804, when the United States had a chance to buy the huge Louisiana Territory from France. Who would make this big decision? And how would it change the United States? Author Elaine Landau poses this and other exciting questions to the reader in this lively account of the Louisiana Purchase.
