" Great Plains Quarterly"Because this book has the capacity to affect one s thinking, it deserves to be read. It may even persuade some readers to discard the term Middle West." Richard S. Kirkendall, Gateway Heritage"Heartland is an excellent presentation, in summary, of the history and background of the 12 Midwestern states."
