Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Wisconsin Witness to Frederick Jackson Turner: A Collection of Essays on the Historian and the Thesis
One of the earliest reviews of the global application of the Turner thesis was that of Carl Russell Fish, published in 1917 in the first volume of the Magazine of History. The Frontier, A World Problem still states the case effectively, and has piqued the imagination of scholars from the frontiers of Western Canada to Eastern Siberia.
