?Neal Peirce has done it again. The Great Plains States of America is a special dividend?a superb companion for those who have enjoyed his Megastates, Mountain States, and Pacific States. It is sensitive, scholarly, and written with a breathtaking pace?a masterful orchestration of politics, culture, biography, and subtleties of the spirit that have characterized the Midwest.? ?Malcolm Moos, President, the University of Minnesota
