MoreFour new countries and nine updated editions have been added to Bobbie Kalman's popular Lands, Peoples, and Cultures series. These powerful and intimate portraits of countries use up-to-date information and full-color photography. Presented in a mini series format, three books per country ensures thorough coverage of all the important aspects. It also allows more students to work on different projects at the same time. Covering more than basic history and geography, students will be fascinated to learn about:
-- the land... geography, agriculture, transportation, history, industry, and glorious wonders
-- the people... unique customs, customs we share, problems faced by minority groups and women
-- the culture... modern festivals, ancient processions, food, games, and more
Mexico's endless variety of natural landscapes were created by devastating earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that continue to this day. Mexico's deserts, plains, rainforests, and mountains are highlighted along with the country's agriculture, industries, overpopulation, and Mayan and Aztec roots.
Topics include:
-- the struggle for a nation
-- earthquakes and volcanoes
-- agriculture and city life
-- regions of Mexico
-- resources, business, and industry
-- wildlife and the environment
-- transportation
