It overlooks the town of Colorado Springs, where historian Jared Orsi teaches. Orsi was inspired to take up this biography not just by geography but also because there has been no modern interpretation of the life of this key explorer in American history. His life sheds considerable life on the early national period and on the American frontier.Born during the Revolution Zebulon, Pike came of age with the nation. Trained as a soldier and stationed at various frontier posts, Pike believed he had struck a bargain with his country: by sacrificing himself physically for the nation, he would be rewarded with the independence to pursue liberty, prosperity, and refinement. He made a name for himself in the early 1800s, when he was chosen to command an expedition to find the source of the Mississippi River and purchase lands from Indians forfuture army posts. He proved himself as an explorer who could conduct missions into the frontier and penetrate Spanish territory, including Santa Fe, the Rocky Mountains, and Louisiana. Along the way he was suspected of mischievous plots against the Spanish and for a time taken captive. (Thisparticularly calls attention to the loose attachment Americans had to the new nation the further West one went.) Nonetheless, he advanced within the army and served during the War of 1812, dying during an expedition he led against York (now Toronto).Orsi aims to interpret the life of Pike through several lenses. He casts him as a nationalist, whose life reflects the tensions of the young republic. Through his figure, he is able to convey the growing interest of Americans in the West, which Pike popularized in his travel narratives. He also sees Pike in environmental terms, analyzing his physical encounters with frontier landscapes. This biography, which would be the only one in print on Pike, should have a similar readership as DonaldWorster's A River Running West and books on the Lewis and Clark expedition, as well as books on the interaction between Americans and Native peoples on the frontier. 606 $aExplorers$zWest (U.S.)$vBiography 607 $aWest (U.S.)$xDiscovery and exploration 607 $aWest (U.S.)$xHistory$yTo 1848 607 $aUnited States$xTerritorial expansion$xHistory$y19th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aExplorers 676 $a973.4/8092 676 $aB 700 $aOrsi$b Jared$f1970-$0895901 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453339603321 996 $aCitizen explorer$92001543 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01073nam--2200361---450 001 990003055220203316 005 20231109214834.0 035 $a000305522 035 $aUSA01000305522 035 $a(ALEPH)000305522USA01 035 $a000305522 100 $a20080124d19------km-y0itay50------ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a----||||001yy 200 1 $a<>occupazione delle terre in Italia$fAlberto Caracciolo 210 $aRoma$cEdizioni di cultura sociale$d[19--] 215 $a70 p.$d18 cm 225 2 $aProblemi d'oggi 410 0$12001$aProblemi d'oggi 606 0 $aMovimento contadino$yItalia$z1860-1949$2BNCF 676 $a331.890430945 700 1$aCARACCIOLO,$bAlberto$010353 801 0$aIT$bsalbc$gISBD 912 $a990003055220203316 951 $aX.3.B. 4607$b178861 L.M.$cX.3.B.$d00131150 951 $aXV.14.Misc. 345$b268632 L.M.$cXV.14.MISC. 959 $aBK 969 $aUMA 969 $aFVIG 979 $aIANNONE$b90$c20080124$lUSA01$h1053 996 $aOccupazione delle terre in Italia$91021907 997 $aUNISA LEADER 01093nam 2200373 450 001 9910793420303321 005 20201113203352.0 010 $a93-86042-79-7 035 $a(CKB)4100000008153475 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5770039 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5770039 035 $a(OCoLC)1101043651 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000008153475 100 $a20201113d2017 uy 0 101 0 $amar 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aBhartateel Samajik Chalvali $eEk Sahityik paramarsh /$fGhanshyam Shah 210 1$aLos Angeles, California :$cSage Publications,$d2017. 215 $a1 online resource (286 pages) 606 $aSocial movements$zIndia$xHistory 607 $aIndia$xSocial conditions 615 0$aSocial movements$xHistory. 676 $a303.4840954 700 $aShah$b Ghanshyam$0643325 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793420303321 996 $aBhartateel Samajik Chalvali$93802904 997 $aUNINA
