"The best assembly of Turner's essays now available. Faragher's
introductory and concluding commentaries add considerably to the
import of the book."-Stephen Aron, University of California, Los
Angeles "Still ranks as the most influential piece of writing on
American history."-Carlin Romano, Philadelphia Inquirer, A Notable
Book of 1994 "Faragher's invaluable afterword . . . provides a
judicious introduction to the issues that divide the revisionist
New Western Historians from Turner and his disciples."-Michael
Kammen, FanFare Frederick Jackson Turner is often considered to be
the most influential American historian of the century, and his
views continue to shape the controversial field of Western American
history. In this book, John Mack Faragher introduces and comments
on ten of Turner's most significant essays, concluding with a
comment on the recent debate over Turner's legacy and his effect on
Americans' understanding of their national character.
