John R. Stilgoe examines the evolution of the North American landscape from the late sixteenth century through the mid-nineteenth century. By analyzing the physical remnants of early settlements, roads, and agricultural patterns, the author reconstructs the environmental and cultural history of the continent before the onset of rapid industrialization. This scholarly study provides a detailed look at how colonial and early national inhabitants shaped the land to suit their functional needs.
