       Prairie Imperialists

      AMERICA IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY

       Series editors: Brian DeLay, Steven Hahn, Amy Dru Stanley

      America in the Nineteenth Century proposes a rigorous rethinking of this most formative period in U.S. history. Books in the series will be wide-ranging and eclectic, with an interest in politics at all levels, culture and capitalism, race and slavery, law, gender, and the environment, and regional and transnational history. The series aims to expand the scope of nineteenth-century historiography by bringing classic questions into dialogue with innovative perspectives, approaches, and methodologies.
