Whiskey rebels; the story of a frontier uprising by Leland D. Baldwin

this was a fun read. i love frontier stuff. and despite some racism/sexism by the author (lol at slaves, they're soo funny?) it was nice to read a little bit that might counter this myth of a union borne out of revolution and set on an immediate course to success. things were touch and go for a while there.

The Keelboat Age on Western Waters by Leland D. Baldwin

Interesting although rather dated.
