Provenance

Where it came from

The Frontier in American History is a collection of essays by Frederick Jackson Turner, originally published in 1920. The work is best known for 'The Significance of the Frontier in American History,' an essay Turner first presented in 1893 that introduced the 'Frontier Thesis.' Turner argued that the American frontier was the fundamental force in shaping American democracy, character, and institutions, shifting the focus of historical study away from European influences toward the unique circumstances of the American experience.

This specific annotated edition serves as a modern effort to recontextualize Turner's influential but highly debated arguments. The annotations are designed to provide students and historians with the necessary critical framework to engage with his text, which has faced significant scholarly scrutiny for its omission of Indigenous perspectives and its romanticized view of westward expansion. By pairing the foundational text with contemporary commentary, this edition aims to preserve the historical importance of the work while addressing the gaps and biases that have been identified in the century since its initial publication.
