Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the founding of Iowa City as a result of the need to house the legislative functions of the recently established Iowa Territory. The author examines the founding of the city, beginning with the land claims of the area, and how such claims were handled in an era before the rule of law had been established on the frontier. The book explores the relationship between the settlers who had established claims, and the territorial government which needed to appropriate the land and found a city. The text also examines the unique circumstances surrounding the donation of public domain land by the US Government to the Territory of Iowa for public purposes, and the legal protections afforded to those who made land claims prior to being overtaken by the demands and prerogatives of the government. The book is a crucial contribution to understanding the legal and institutional history of Iowa, and the role of land claim associations in the settlement and development of the Midwest in the 19th century.
