Average Customer Rating: A study of Packer territory | Customer Rating: | As a Green Bay Packer fan, I knew I would love this volume of the Portrait of America series. But there's more to Wisconsin than just the cheese-heads. This great little book will explain it all. The "Portrait of America" series is a wonderful and concise introduction for pre-teens to all of the fifty states and to the places and events that shaped the history of the United States. This "Wisconsin" installment is particularly good. The book is broken down into sections like "History", "Culture", "Economy" etc., and each section is thoughtfully written and edited. And this edition is loaded with several beautiful photographs. This book, as well as the entire "Portrait of America" series, will prove to be a valuable teaching tool to all primary school educators. | | |
