5.0 out of 5 stars Desk reference on the states, April 4, 2000

By	Audrey Bottkol (Texas) - See all my reviews

This book would be very useful for finding answers to your state questions. For those who want more information on a particular subject, there is an annotated bibliography at the end of each section. The section on state profiles includes information you might expect to find in an almanac, such as land area, state song, and state flower. An easy to use book filled with tidbits of information.
