The Frontier in American History (World Digital Library Edition)

ebook
More than a century has passed since America’s relentless expansion across the continent concluded with the disappearance of the frontier. The integration of this experience into mainstream historiography began with the work of Frederick Jackson Turner in the late nineteenth century. His observations, embodied in The Frontier in American History, changed traditional assumptions about the development of the United States, as well as established a new methodology for historical inquiry.
