What Hath God Wrought: The Transformation of America, 1815–1848

Daniel Walker Howe offers a panoramic history of the United States from the end of the War of 1812 through the Mexican-American War. New systems of communication and transportation connect an account of politics, religion, reform, economic change, Native dispossession, slavery, and continental expansion. By treating information as a force in public life, Howe explains how Americans transformed both their institutions and their sense of national possibility.
