Our States Have Crazy Shapes: Panhandles, Bootheels, Knobs And Points [Paperback]

Our States Have Crazy Shapes is a book that describes in laymans terms the behind-the-scenes decisions that caused our leaders to carve odd shapes on our map.
Who decided that Michigan should have the Upper Peninsula when that landmass is actually attached to Wisconsin?
Whats up with that bootheel, Missouri?
Why did the shapes of our states get noticeably square as we moved west?
Why are some of our states so big and others so small?
Our States Have Crazy Shapes answers these questions and more. Bonus chapters describe border battles that continue to this day, as well as how Mother Nature has played a part in creating our map outlines.
