About this item

The third series of America the Beautiful is back in a revised edition. The books in this series are bursting with fascinating facts, updated statistics, and brand-new full-color photographs. America the Beautiful's dynamic design and editorial approach to the geography, history, people, economy, and government of each state will continue to make this award-winning series the one that students turn to first for researching school assignments. Minnesota is known as the Land of 10,000 Lakes, but even that nickname is an understatement. There are actually nearly 12,000 lakes within the state's border! Readers will tour these lakes and everything in between, from the fast-paced lifestyle of the Twin Cities to the towns and farms throughout Minnesota's rural areas.
