Highway to the North | Collectivism and Cultural Change (North Country Chapter Five Summary and Discussion)

Steamboats were a game changer for the North Country. They brought profiteers, tourists, and a certain #Hamilton into the Minnesota story. Missionaries plied their faith and attempted to Christianize indigenous people; some successful, some not. American leaders delivered aristocracy and began the push toward white settlement.

Sam Temple and Logan Ledman discuss and explain Chapter Five of North Country, by Mary Lethert Wingerd.
