Significance of the Frontier in American History":
That coarseness and strength combined with acuteness
and inquisitiveness; that practical, inventive turn of mind,
quick to find expedients; that masterful grasp of material
things, lacking in the artistic but powerful to effect great
ends; that restless, nervous energy; that dominant
individualism, working for good and for evil, and withal that
buoyancy and exuberance which comes with freedom-
these are traits of the frontier, or traits called out elsewhere
because of the existence of the frontier.
