Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Land Hardcover - 1988
by James Christopher
Friedenberg shows that the exploration and founding of North America had very little to do with grand goals of escaping political and religious persecution, or fighting the good fight for human rights. Instead, the settling of new colonies was in great measure based upon insatiable greed for land and the immense fortunes that could be made from its speculation. Photographs and illustrations.
