Customer Reviews

It shows you the Show Me State.

Home to Mark Twain, Harry Truman, and riverboat gamblers, Missouri, the "Show Me State" (known for its cynics) is rich in cultural history. This book will show you how rich.The "Portrait of America" series is a sensational and easy to understand introduction for pre-teens to the 50 states and to the places and events that shaped the history of the United States. This "Missouri" installment is very good. The book is broken down into sections like "History", "Culture", "Economy" etc., and each section is thoughtfully written and edited. This book, as well as the entire "Portrait of America" series, will prove to be a valuable teaching tool to all primary school educators.
