- Summary:
- The daughter of Oklahoma sodbusters, a student of Edward Everett Dale, and a protegee of Frederick Jackson Turner, Angie Debo was an unlikely forerunner of the New Western History. Breaking with the followers of Turner, Debo viewed the westward movement of European Americans as conquest rather than settlement. Her studies on the Five Tribes presented the Native American point of view and incorporated ethnological insights more than a decade before ethnology emerged as a separate field.
