Book excerpt: The first comprehensive political history of Oregon, To the Promised Land also examines the social and economic changes the state has pioneered during its almost two hundred years. Highlighting major political figures, campaigns, ballot measures, and the history of legislative sessions, Tom Marsh traces the evolution of Oregon from incorporated territory to a state at the forefront of national environmental and social movements. From Jason Lee's first letter urging Congress to take possession of the Oregon Country to John Kitzhaber's precedent-setting third term as governor, from the land frauds of the early 20th century to the state's land-use planning goals, from the Beach Bill to the Bottle Bill, this book tells Oregon's story. Featuring interesting trivia, historical photographs, and biographical sketches of key politicians, To the Promised Land is an essential volume for readers interested in Oregon's history.

Book excerpt: *Includes pictures *Includes contemporary accounts *Includes online resources and a bibliography for further reading The westward movement of Americans in the 19th century was one of the largest and most consequential migrations in history, and among the paths that blazed west, the most well-known is the Oregon Trail, which was not a single trail but a network of paths that began at one of four "jumping off" points. The eastern section of the Oregon Trail, which followed the Missouri River through Kansas, Nebraska, and Wyoming, was shared by people traveling along the California, Bozeman, and Mormon Trails. These trails branched off at various points, and the California Trail diverged from the Oregon Trail at Fort Hall in southern Idaho. From there, the Oregon Trail moved northward, along the Snake River, then through the Blue Mountains to Fort Walla Walla. From there, travelers would cross the prairie before reaching the Methodist mission at The Dalles, which roughly marked the end of the Trail. The Trail stretched roughly half the country, and hundreds of thousands of settlers would use it, yet the Oregon Trail is famous not so much for its physical dimensions but for what it represented. As many who used the Oregon Trail described in memoirs, the West represented opportunities for adventure, independence, and fortune, and fittingly, the ever popular game named after the Oregon Trail captures that mentality and spirit by requiring players to safely move a party west to the end of the trail. Perhaps most famously, the game that helped popularize current generations' interest in the Oregon Trail highlighted the obstacles the pioneers faced in moving West. Indeed, as all too many settlers discovered, traveling along the Trail was fraught with various kinds of obstacles and danger, including bitter weather, potentially deadly illnesses, and hostile Native Americans, not to mention an unforgiving landscape that famous American explorer Stephen Long deemed "unfit for human habitation." And while many would look back romantically at the Oregon Trail over time, 19th century Americans were all too happy and eager for the transcontinental railroad to help speed their passage west and render overland paths like the Oregon Trail obsolete. Oregon Country: The History and Legacy of the Disputed Region and the Treaty that Led to Oregon's Statehood examines the land disputes, and how events unfolded on the way to Oregon becoming part of America. Along with pictures depicting important people, places, and events, you will learn about Oregon Country like never before.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Oregon Territory: It Being a Demonstration of the Title of These United States of North America to the Same Forty years after the discovery of the Western Continent, Hernan Cortez, the conqueror of Mexico, having explored the neighboring countries, in search of rich nations to plunder, turned his attention to the north and northwest. At the commencement of the sixteenth century, the most northern settlements of the Spaniards in North America, were Culiacan, a small establishment on the eastern side of the Gulf of California, in about twenty-five degrees north latitude, and Panuco, situated near the spot now occupied by Tampieo, on the Mexican Gulf. Of this expedition, made under the direction and orders of Cortez, little authentic is known. In 1532, Diego Hurtade de Mendoza, a relation of Cortez, sailed from Acapulco in a small ship, accompanied by Juan de Mazuela, in command of another vessel. They proceeded along the southwest coast of Mexico, as far as the twenty-seventh degree of north latitude. Here a tempest separated them, and the vessel commanded by Mendoza was lost. After the storm abated, Mazuela was obliged to return to the river Culiaean, where the greater part of his crew deserted. Those who remained endeavoring to bring the ship back to Acapulco, ran her ashore in the province of Jalisco. There the crew, excepting three, were murdered by the savages; and subsequently the vessel was rifled by Nuno de Guzman, the chief of a band of adventurers, who pretended to be independent of Cortez. The next year, as no news of these vessels had reached Acapulco, Cortez sent out two others in the same direction, under Hernando de Grijalva and Diego de Becerra, who set sail from Tehuantepee in October, 1533. Grijalva, separating from his companions, sailed to the westward, and having discovered a group of small islands about one hundred and fifty miles from the main land, (now known as the Revillagigedo lslands, ) he returned to Mexico without making any further discovery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oregon Territory, Its History and Discovery The object which the author had in view, in instituting the accompanying inquiry into the historical facts and the negotiations connected with the Oregon Territory, was to contribute, as tar as his individual services night avail, to the peaceful solution of the question at issue between the United States of America and Great Britain. He could not resist the conviction, on reading several able treatises on the subject, that the case of the United States had been overstated by her writers and negotiators; and the perusal of Mr. Greenhow's Official Memoir, and subsequent history of Oregon and California, confirmed him in this impression, as they sought to establish more than was consistent with the acknowledged difficulty of a question, which has now been the subject of four fruitless negotiations. He determined, in consequence of this conviction, to investigate carefully the records of ancient discoveries and other matters of history connected with the north-west coast of America, concerning which much contradictory statement is to be met with in writers of acknowledged reputation.
