Fire Sale! - The Louisiana Purchase 1803

In this episode Tracy DW presents her perspective on arguably the
most significant event in America's history. An event which saw
the original 13 colonies transition into the 50 states we see
today. A transition that cost the lives and land rights of many
in order to benefit the few. Tracy also presents her own
explanation as to why she thinks this is so inextricably linked
to Britain's colonial past. You can find out more by clicking on
