When it appeared in 1949, the first edition of Ray Allen
Billington's 'Westward Expansion' set a new standard for
scholarship in western American history, and the book's reputation
among historians, scholars, and students grew through four
subsequent editions. This abridgment and revision of Billington and
Martin Ridge's fifth edition, with a new introduction and
additional scholarship by Ridge, as well as an updated
bibliography, focuses on the Trans-Mississippi frontier. Although
the text sets out the remarkable story of the American frontier,
which became, almost from the beginning, an archetypal narrative of
the new American nation's successful expansion, the authors do not
forget the social, environmental, and human cost of national
expansion.
