The frontier There is no word in the English language more stirring, more intimate, or more beloved. It has in it all the elan of the old French phrase, En avant It carries all of the old Saxon command, Forward It means all that America ever meant. It means the old hope of a real personal liberty, and yet a real human advance in character and achievement. To a genuine American it is the dearest word in all the world. |
