In this fourth volume of Roosevelt’s engrossing The Winning of the West series, he looks to the rugged frontier. His description of all the American west witnessed from 1784 to 1787—an inrush of settlers, the Indian Wars, the routing of the Mississippi, the Separatist Movement, Kentucky’s struggle to become a state, and more—is simply gripping.
