Quite an interesting and well written book about the settlement of Ohio.

Just finished this history book about the pioneers in the Ohio river valley. Quite an exciting and informative read. Aaron Burr - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Burr)

His stuff about Aaron Burr and a rich couple who lived near Marietta, Ohio was quite fascinating. Burr conspiracy - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burr_conspiracy)

Yep. We visited Blennerhassett and got all this Burr history. Very interesting. Have read lots of McCullogh's books and liked them.
