Robert Miller

January 7, 2010


In Native America, Discovered and Conquered: Thomas Jefferson, Lewis & Clark, and Manifest Destiny, Professor Robert Miller addresses the international legal principle called the Doctrine of Discovery and how that legal rule was used in American history and transformed into the American policy of Manifest Destiny. Professor Miller is our featured historian at the upcoming TAH weekend workshop. Below are some resources that may aid in reading his book and in understanding the doctrine of discovery.
