Basher History: States and Capitals is the follow-up title to the
bestselling Basher History: U.S. Presidents. This unique and
comprehensive guide to 50 states (plus DC and the six territories)
presents each state in the hip Basher fashion. Who better than Basher to
give each state a face, voice, and personality and to give kids a fun,
unusual but really information-packed gazetteer of their country. From
Alabama to Wyoming, and everywhere in between, each state boasts about
why it is special, dishes fun facts not found elsewhere, and waxes
poetics about its motto, state bird, flag, state flower, and more! Find
out how Connecticut got to be called the Provision State, why Georgia is
nuts about nuts and why Illinois is called the Land of Lincoln.
