Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. 1918 Lakes, Peaks, and Prairies: Discovering the United States-Canadian Border, by Thomas O'Neill (read 2 Apr 1985) This travel book is like a long National Geographic article, being a book published by the National Geographic Society. I enjoyed it. There is a lot of variety on the border, and the pictures are high quality, even if the prose is predictable. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

" ... To find out how life is lived along an international border, author Thomas O'Neill and photographer Michael Yamashita traveled the length of the line, from the fishing villages on Passamaquoddy Bay to the rain forest of Vancouver Island. They explored buoyant Toronto and Vancouver, and face-to-face border towns such as Calais, Maine, and St. Stephen, New Brunswick. They met a diverse human gallery: proud Madawaskans, clinging to their French heritage along the St. John River; German-speaking Hutterites creating showplace communal farms on the open plains; Osoyoos Indians leading a wine-making revolution in British Columbia ... Much more than just a line on a map, the U.S.-Canadian border and its neighborhoods provide a living stage where the geography and peoples of two great nations come into lasting focus."
