History 170 Manifest Destiny
There are two different depictions of the concept of “Manifest Destiny.” One is a painting created in 1872. The second is a video slide show made to go along with “The Last Resort,” a song recorded by The Eagles in the late 1970s. (I could not embed the video on this page. Just look up the video.)
How are these two depictions of the concept of Manifest Destiny” different from one another? Which depiction, in your opinion, is more historically accurate? Explain your answer.
