ISBN: 9780911042436.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElwyn Robinsons sweeping HISTORY OF NORTH DAKOTA has become one of Americas classic state histories. It has been reviewed as \"astonishingly comprehensive\" and \"fascinating.\" One of the states great professors and historians takes into account not only politics, but sociology, economics, ethnology, theology, nature studies, and geography to describe North Dakota to the world and to itself.\nGeography, in particular, formed the basis of Robinsons historical interpretation. His \"too-much mistake,\" the belief that North Dakota built too much, too fast, in an isolated area buffeted by a difficult climate, has become the guiding principle for a quarter century of historical debate on Dakota plains history.\nLong out of print, Robinsons 1966 work has now been reissued by the North Dakota Institute for Regional Studies at North Dakota State University, Fargo. Included are a new preface by UND history professor D. Jerome Tweton, and a new postscript by NDSU history professor David B. Danbom. Both recognized experts on plains history, Professor Tweton examines the themes and the time of Robinson, while Professor Danbom brings the states history from the mid-1960s to the present. Also new in this edition are 41 photos and illustrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Brand: North Dakota State University, Institute for","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44947346686005,"sku":"ByrdShop_0911042431","price":317.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780911042436_09b28dd3-9737-4c79-8cb3-a348d0384cae.jpg?v=1781229008","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/history-of-north-dakota-9780911042436","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
