Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that the growth and development of the United States warrants a removal of the nation's capital from Washington, D. C. to the Mississippi Valley. The author presents a history of the current capital's establishment in the 1790s, contrasting the size and scope of the nation then to the sprawling continental power it has become. Through an analysis of population, commerce, and political representation, the book argues that the center of the country has moved west, leaving the capital in an antiquated location that no longer serves the needs of the nation. The author concludes that, just as the capital was moved from Philadelphia and New York to Washington, D. C. in the 1790s, it is again time to consider a move to a more central location, one better suited to running the modern-day United States.
