This is one of my favorite periods. Read the following:
Jedediah Smith and the Opening of the West by Dale Morgan
The Course of Empire by Bernard DeVoto
Across the Wide Missouri by Bernard DeVoto
1846 the Year of Decision by Bernard DeVoto
The above are all great books written in the early 20th Century
Three source material must-reads are
The Oregon Trail by Francis Parkman
Democracy in America by Alexis de Tocqueville
Two Years Before the Mast by Richard Henry Dana
I can't remember any contemporary books that stand out right now but I'll look through my books at home.
