While it was true that western lands were somewhat more fertile than the now-depleted lands of the East, many of the pioneers were attracted to the frontier in order to speculate in land, i.e. to purchase large quantities of cheap government land and to sell it at a profit to later comers
The correct answer is : B: False. Shakespeare wasn't born in London - he was born in Stratford-upon-Avon and baptized there on 26 April 1564. His actual date of birth really remains unknown, but it is traditionally observed on 23 April, Saint Georges Day. This date, which can be traced back to an 18th-century scholar's mistake, has proved appealing to biographers, since Shakespeare died 23 April 1616. <span>He was the third child of eight and the eldest surviving son.</span>
