De verovering van de Rockies

Kaplan's focus on this specific mountain range offers a unique lens on American development. I wonder what motivated him to highlight this particular geographic feature.

The way the book connects physical features to political decisions was fascinating, but also made me think about how much geography influences our lives today. Did that resonate with others?

Kaplan links geography directly to America's global role, which made me question how much geography still shapes international relations today. Would love to hear others' thoughts.
