This was quite an endeavor that Pearl Buck took on - to see and write about every state. She says "This book is a personal communication between my country and me. I did not know my country until half my life had gone. Then with adult mind and willing heart, I came here to live. All was new, all was wonderful, nearly all was beautiful. We Americans have more than our share of the world's wonders. It would be impossible for me to write of all there is to see. I have only written of what I myself have seen and felt about my country." I hope you enjoy looking back and taking in Buck's perspective of the beauty in each state! 320 pages with a key to color photographs, most are black & white. The bottom corners are slightly bent in.
