| Description: |
Chronicles Frederick Jackson Turner's professional legacy of Western historical writing. The author treats Turner and his disciples with a sympathetic yet critical eye - pointing out both the major contributions and the limitations of their work. |
| Synopsis: |
"From a master historian, this is one of the most important contributions in recent years to American historiography. It adds to a penetrating analysis of the development of Turner's thought a searching consideration of the influence of his ideas, an investigation of the advocacy and criticism that they have sparked, and an estimate of their enduring importance. Handsomely produced and illustrated". -- Choice. |
