Situated between the Wabash, Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, the Southern Illinois country is rich in history, folk lore, scenery, and natural resources. At about the latitude of southern Virginia, and extending from the flat prairie farm land of central Illinois to the rugged Illinois Ozarks, the area is the natural terminal boundary for hundreds of plant species reaching out to all points of the compass. It is also the oldest and most sparsely populated part of Illinois, a region of small towns and independent people. Surveying the area in words and pic tures, the authors sensitively and appre ciatively portray the region's special qualities. Land Between the Rivers , a perennial classic since it was first published in 1973, provides an uncommon portrayal of American life in a distinct region, a memorable journey in both time and place.

I was born and raised in Southern Illinois, but reading this book I learned facts and information I had never known, it was well documented and well written. Would reccomend it to any one wanting to know more about that part of the country.
