Book Description
A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.

Book Description
It's a story that's been waiting to be told for forty years, and now, thanks to that Old Iditarod Gang, Iditarod: The First Ten Years shares the behind-the-scenes (and newsmaker) stories with a scrapbook of stories, art, and photography from the dozens and dozens of people who experienced the first decade themselves: the volunteers, race officials, financial supporters, public relations folks, administrators, and the mushers.This highly collectible volume turns back the clock to those seat-of-the-pants years, when the single goal was simply to finish. And what an achievement that was in the days of wool and bunny boots, when mushers carried a seal or a caribou haunch in their sleds, and competitors stayed in checkpoints long enough to share a campfire, some music, and more than a few stories.They're here now, those stories, those images, bound into a rare anthology that you?ll enjoy for hour after hour.
