Natural Boundaries

Obstinate Ocean of Grass

What attitude might the whites have towards the Great Plains? “I am certain this large area is almost completely unfit for cultivation and impossible for farmers to live on. Although large areas of fertile land can be found, the shortage of wood and water will prove an impossible barrier to settling the country. The whole area seems only suited for vast numbers of buffaloes and other wild animals which are able to feed well on it.” Major Stephen Long who led an expedition to the Great Plains in 1819 – 1820

What was the Permanent Indian Frontier in 1832? The US Government decreed that the Indian tribes could freely inhabit the Great Plains and that they would not encroach on their land.
