5.0 out of 5 stars
Nebraska's history in pictures,
By Bomojaz (South Central PA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Nebraska: An Illustrated History (Great Plains Photography) (Hardcover)
An oversized, very handsomely illustrated history of Nebraska. There is some text, but the emphasis is on the photographs depicting various time periods in the state's development. There are 5 major sections: before statehood, the fledgling state, the emergence of modern Nebraska (1890-1930), drought and war (1930-1970), and the most recent technological era (1970-present). The photos are far-ranging and include famous people, forts, Native Americans, early town and city growth, natural formations, Dust Bowl scenes, cowboy and farm life, and the most recent developments. It's a fun book to look at and would grace anyone's coffeetable, Cornhusker or otherwise.

This review is from: Nebraska: An Illustrated History, Second Edition (Great Plains Photography) (Paperback)
This is a great resource if you teach Nebraska history. If you think you're getting in-depth info, look elsewhere. There are plenty of good pictures in here and each chapter has about 2-3 pages of writing so it's nice to read before bed.
