The settling of the American West

I need help with a four-paragraph essay that has a clear thesis which is in the first paragraph that serves as the central point of the entire essay.
The thesis will be an interpretive statement not a factual one. You will explain why events occurred and not what happened.
“The settling of the American West” according to an eminent contemporary historian, “has bec perceived as a series of quaint, violent, and romantic adventures of rugged individuals pushing acres the continent. But in fact, the history of that region from 1850 to 1900 can be best understood as a economic and cultural conquest.” Meditate on this assertion by comparing Frederick Jackson Turner’ frontier thesis to the lived experiences of Mormons, Mexican.Amerieans, and Native Americans in di West. Do you agree more viith Turner or the eminent historian? Why? ten:11,4v %8)
