Northeast

Readers discover what sets the Northeast apart from the rest of the United States, including the regional customs, foods, and places that shape everyday life. Seafood like lobster and sports like lacrosse are among the traditions that help define the area.

The book focuses on the people who live in the Northeast, including the history of the Native peoples who first lived in the region. It also explains the land, the economy, and how government and citizenship work there. Information is organized clearly so it is easy to follow. A glossary, an index, discussion questions, and other study aids help readers review the material and talk about it.
