This is a coffee table book, having just a few short coverages of widely seperated events and travels of early North America post European immigration. Most of the pages are photos with the text usually limited to photo captions and a few paragraphs of unrelated history. The photos were not taken with any correspondence to the editors of the stories, so do not normally relate to the stories they are within. However the ilustrator did communicate with the editor so illustrations do support the text, including some maps.
