Book Synopsis
Dive into the history, geography, and culture of New York in this installment of the 50 States series. From major cities to historic events, Where Is New York? introduces you to the state in a whole new way, whether you're proud to call it home or learning about a distant destination.
Visit famous places like the theaters of Broadway. Meet important people like the writers of the Harlem Renaissance. Read about the Indigenous peoples who have lived in the area for thousands of years, and the first Dutch settlers to arrive. Fans of sports, nature, and weird facts will all find something to love about the home of Niagara Falls and the Statue of Liberty. There's a reason New York is the most visited state in the country!
Including timelines, black-and-white illustrations, and a fact-filled "At a Glance" section, this book has everything you need to know about the heritage, development, and present day of New York.
