Fun information on the state of Nebraska I would say this would be a starter book If you know Nebraska history there MAY be a few items you don't know about, but over all it is basic history of the state.

[Matt Zalman · Rating 5 out of 5]

Truly a great book about Nebraska, telling all kinds of stories and not shying away from its history during WWII. Great read!

[David · Rating 3 out of 5]

A fun read about some random Nebraska history. There was plenty I didn't know about, even growing up in the state. It made me miss the Good Life.

A fun and interesting read. We read it in the car as we drove across Nebraska last month. I loved the stories and how they were brought to life. I can picture people of all ages enjoying this book. Thanks Karen!

Most read if you are from or living in Nebraska. I am an 8th-grade history teacher in Omaha and can't wait to share these stories with my students.
