Book Description
By the bestselling author of American Nations, the story of how the myth of U.S. national unity was created and fought over in the nineteenth century--a myth that continues to affect us today Union tells the story of the struggle to create a national myth for the United States, one that could hold its rival regional cultures together and forge an American nationhood. On one hand, a small group of individuals--historians, political leaders, and novelists--fashioned and promoted the idea of America as nation that had a God-given mission to lead humanity toward freedom, equality, and self-government. But this emerging narrative was swiftly contested by another set of intellectuals and firebrands who argued that the United States was instead the homeland of the allegedly superior "Anglo-Saxon" race, upon whom divine and Darwinian favor shined. Colin Woodard tells the story of the genesis and epic confrontations between these visions of our nation's path and purpose through the lives of the key figures who created them, a cast of characters whose personal quirks and virtues, gifts and demons shaped the destiny of millions.

Book Description
"By 1860 Wisconsin's Danish-born population had climbed to 1,150. But these newcomers remained only a small segment of the state's increasingly complex ethnic mosaic, and the challenges of adapting to life in this new land, among diverse cultures, forged the Danish experience in Wisconsin. In this concise introduction to the state's Danish settlers, Frederick Hale traces the catalysts for Danish emigration, their difficult journeys, and their adjustments to life on Wisconsin soil. Updates for this edition include additional historic photographs and the selected letters of Andrew Frederickson, which were written over a forty-year span and capture the personal observations of one Dane who made a new life in Wisconsin."--BOOK JACKET.
