In a short essay of 300 to 450 words, place the Reynolds decision and Professor Taysoms analysis of it in the overall context of Turners thesis. In other words, can the Mormon era in territorial Utah fit into Turners thesis of how the frontier operated in the furtherance of American liberty and individuality?
