THE FRONTIER IN AMERICAN HISTORY - CHAPTER # 1

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE FRONTIER IN AMERICAN HISTORY  -  CHAPTER  #  1

#  1  > In a recent bulletin of the Superintendent of the Census for 1890 appear these significant words: "Up to and including 1880 the country had a frontier of settlement, but at present the unstteled area has been so broken into by isolated bodies of settlement that there can hardly be said to be a frontier line. In the discussion of its extent, its westward movement, etc., it can not, therefore, any longer hav e a place in the census reports."
