Iowa is the land between two rivers: the Missouri and the mighty Mississippi. These two great rivers are responsible for Iowa's claim to fame: it's rich soil. Beginning with prehistoric man up to statehood, this book explains how these two rivers and this rich soil were the early seeds for settlement in Iowa.

Review:

"Each book in the Seeds of a Nation series presents the history of an area before it attained statehood. Most of the colorful photographs of sites and the other illustrations, including maps, paintings, and tinted engravings are well chosen to support the text. Those looking for pre-statehood history, though, will find these compact volumes useful."

"These titles will be useful for history units in their respective states."
