History
The West plays a major role in American mythology–The Frontier Thesis, Manifest Destiny, etc. Define these. How important was Western development in the Gilded Age
(briefly include the roles of government and mining and railroad industries)? How did the West develop? Describe this phenomenon. How did Western expansion impact
the Native populations and other groups like farmers, ranchers, cowboys and new Western immigrants? What did it mean, the Frontier “closed” by the 20th century, and
what were the ramifications of this for American mythology of Manifest Destiny? In conclusion, how do authors Stone and Kuznick, in the beginning of their text Untold
History, frame the problems of writing and the telling of history, and how do those concepts relate to these aforementioned issues above?
