Read the following excerpt from Frederick Jackson Turner's thesis, "The 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.
Which of the following best describes Turner's attitude toward people on the
frontier?
