  • Publisher : Rowman & Littlefield
  • Release : 2019-09-17
  • ISBN : 1493041614
  • Pages : 209 pages

Download or read book Seven Montanas written by Ednor Therriault and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vast space of the American West that has been designated as the state of Montana is such a diverse and varied landscape that it’s been said it could easily be sliced up into several smaller states. And with its smorgasbord of industry, history, culture and the various worldviews held by its residents, getting a bead on Montana’s personality is a challenge. That may be because Montana, in fact, has several fairly distinct personalities. This book examines those personalities, through the lens of seven geographic and cultural regions commonly recognized in the state. While Montanans share a few attitudes and love of the land that attracts them to Big Sky country, it’s the differences between the regions that truly give the state its unique flavor. Through interviews, photos, history and personal observations, Therriault profiles each region and in the process gives a more complete view of the state as a whole. Along the way the reader will learn why some people choose to live where they do, how they view the rest of the state, and what some of the factors are that give each region its singularity.
