The West

The West

Empire Upon the Trails (1806–1848) (1x2)


Air date: Sep 16, 1996

Americans head west along many pathways—following the fur trade into the mountains, fighting for self-determination in Texas, seeking religious freedom in Utah or a better life along the Oregon Trail. But whatever direction they travel, they move closer with every step to a “Manifest Destiny” that will make the West their own.
