Now middle school and high school students have an encyclopedia from U-X-L that gives them all the facts and details on every state in the U.S., including the District of Columbia and U.S. dependencies. Entries cover the geography, history, politics, economy and other facts about each state. Alphabetically arranged entries feature consistent subheadings for each state so students can quickly find comparative information. An index of people, places and subjects makes searches easy, and sources for further study provides students with the next step to learn more.
