5.0 out of 5 stars A Northern Wonderland gets a great book, July 2, 2004
This review is from: Alaska (Portrait of America) (Library Binding)
Alaska is a beautiful place which I had the pleasure to visit for an extended amount of time. I discovered that Alaska has a lot going for it, and this book will show you and your students what.

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 "Alaska" installment is very good. The book is broken down into sections like "History", "Culture", "Economy" etc., and each section is thoughtfully written and edited. The "Culture" section is quite good, but I wish it had dealt more with the older civilizations that had existed before the 18th century.

This book, as well as the entire "Portrait of America" series, will prove to be a valuable teaching tool to all primary school educators.
