Best Single Volume Maryland History out there

Granted the book stops at the dawn of the internet and biotech age and housing boom that has transformed MD's economic and social fabric, it is still the best single volume history of the state availible. Brugger carefully examines the main themes of Maryland's history and ties them all together with the state's penchant for tolerance and moderation. An excellent book for reference or research on the Old Line State/Free State.
