This short essay argues that 'big government' begins in America's earliest days-- despite our founding myth of small government and limited federal activity. The essay addresses the federal government's indispensable role in land acquisition, its regulation of the fur trade, and its role in managing defense, trade, and social policies. Complementing a wave of new scholarship, 'How Big Government Won the West' offers a brief and compelling look at governance in the republic's first century.
