Our Ohio

Más información sobre el libro

The name ""Ohio"" is based on an Iroquois word for ""good river."" With more than 44,000 square miles of water, including eleven river systems, there?s no doubt that Ohio has been defined by nature. "Our Ohio" is a pictorial celebration that showcases this state?s stunning vistas, offering a glimpse into what makes the region unique. From the vastness of Lake Erie and the historic lighthouses that hold sentry along the lakeshore to the rushing waterfalls and sandstone cliffs of the Appalachian foothills; from historic Clifton Mill and the rolling farmlands and horse-drawn buggies of Amish country to the Toledo Botanical Gardens and the birthplaces of Thomas Edison and Ulysses S. Grant; from the Rock `n? Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland to the charming art deco architecture of downtown Cincinnati, "Our Ohio" celebrates the natural, historical, and cultural aspects of the Buckeye State.
