St. Louis, a city that served as a gateway to the West and a hub for Eastern capital and culture, bridged not only geographical and political divides but also cultural, racial, and sectional ones. Simultaneously, it connected a vast region as a gathering place for people, cultures, and goods. The essays in this collection contextualize St. Louis, exploring French-Native relations, the agency of empire in the Illinois Country, the role of women in "mapping" the French colonial world, fashion and identity, and commodities and exchange in St. Louis as part of a broader politics of consumption in colonial America. The collection also provides a comparative perspective on America's two great Creole cities, St. Louis and New Orleans. Lastly, it examines the Frenchness of St. Louis in the nineteenth century and the present.
