From the rocky shores of New England to the wilderness of Alaska, from the Canadian border to the southern tip of Texas, this beautifully photographed series shows how geography helped shape the history, government, and business of the United States. Documentary segments and historic reenactments introduce prominent industries, agriculture, mining activities, and historical events by region, and map skills are reinforced to help students place these regions within the United States as a whole.
