About This Book

An account of a frontier settlement's growth from a scattered military post into an organized borough, tracing its social institutions, legal adjustments, and cultural maturation. It describes the effect of unsettled jurisdiction, conflicts and frontier insecurity on daily life; the slow emergence of schooling, newspapers, and municipal planning; patterns of land sales and incoming migration that created a diverse population; and the evolution of public and private affairs, including local controversies, duels, and civic leadership. Chapters move chronologically and thematically to show how crude pioneer habits gradually gave way to broader educational, cultural, and civic institutions.
