An essay by Lee Benson claimed that the ideas behind this man's best known work were borrowed from Achille Loria. One of his essays argued that the West's "forces of democracy" were personified in Andrew Jackson, while he wrote that regions of the US, not states, determined national policy in The Significance of Sections in American History. In another essay, he argued that American individualism evolved because successive waves of American settlers moved to "areas of free land" and cited the census of 1890 to mark the end of "the first period in American history." FTP, name this historian who argued that Westward expansion was a democratizing influence on the United States in his landmark essay "The Significance of the Frontier in American History."
