The Health Of The Country : How American Settlers Understood Themselves And Their Land

  • The Health Of The Country : How American Settlers  Understood Themselves And Their Land
  • Attribution

    by Conevery Bolton Valencius
  • Publication Details

    Book, 1st ed, Basic Books, 2007
  • Description

    Many have written about the settling of early 19th century America, but until now no one has explored these settlers’ self-consciousness about what they were doing, what “settling” and cultivating the land itself meant. In The Health of the Country, Conevery Valencius shows that assessments of the “sickliness” or “health” of land pervade settlers’ letters, journals, newspapers, and literature–evidence of the common sense of another time, when land was believed to have intrinsic health characteristics and the human body was understood to be linked in intimate and intricate ways with similar balances in the surrounding world.
