Celebrate our national heritage at 31 historically significant sites where our past is brought vividly to life. From the gold rush town of Columbia, California, to the shipbuilding port of Bath, Maine, this book covers our scenic and historic country.
The Reader's Digest Association, Inc. is a global media and direct marketing company based in Chappaqua, New York, best known for its flagship publication founded in 1922, Reader's Digest. The company's headquarters are in New York City, where it moved from Pleasantville, New York.
The company was founded by DeWitt and Lila Wallace in 1922 with the first publication of Reader's Digest magazine, but has grown to include a diverse range of magazines, books, music, DVDs and online content.
This book doesn't cover very many historic sites, but the ones that are included are covered very well. Personally, I wish the book had covered at least a few places in each state.
