Chapter 20: Founding the Left Coast
1
Astoria, Oregon, the first “American” settlement on the Pacific coast, was the creation of New Netherlander John Jacob Astor but manned by Scots and French Canadian hirelings. In 1813, after just two years in operation, it was sold to a British company, which in turn merged with the Hudson's Bay Company. Culturally speaking, Astor's outpost was of little consequence.
