About the book

In this series of essays first published in 1920, the noted historian presents his ideas on the role of the frontier in shaping the American experience. The Frontier in American History examines the importance of the unsettled West as both idea and physical reality. Turner's essays explore the changing frontier as it moved progressively westward and discuss the contributions of the pioneers in each frontier area to the development of modern American democracy.
