This book was released on 2016-12-21 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A South Dakota Guide South Dakota is extremely conscious of its newness as a State, of the fact that it offers one of the few remaining opportunities to see pioneer life. It is just as conscious of its great geologic age, vividly manifest in the Black Hills formations and the Badlands, one of the most picturesque and scientifically interesting eroded areas in the world. The three nicknames given the State in a sense describe it - the Sunshine, the Blizzard, and the Coyote State. Perhaps its official name, Dakota, taken from the Sioux language and meaning an alliance of friends, is equally characteristic. South Dakota believes in its State motto Under God the People Rule; it was the first State to introduce the initiative and referem dum in State affairs, and' it has one of the lowest illiteracy rates. Dwelling within its borders is one of the largest Indian populations in the country, descendants of the highly developed Sioux who chose their leaders, chief among them Sitting Bull, because of personal qualities rather than heredity.

It is quite certain that at this time South Dakota was in the main a vast steaming swamp, for the climate was tropical, and out of the swamp grew tropical verdure.

Download or read book The WPA Guide to South Dakota written by and published by Minnesota Historical Society. This book was released on 2006 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1930s, at the height of the Great Depression, the federal government put thousands of unemployed writers to work in the Federal Writers' Project of the Works Progress Administration (WPA). Out of their efforts came the American Guide series, the first comprehensive guidebooks to the people, resources, and traditions of each state in the union. The WPA Guide to South Dakota is a candid, detailed, and lively introduction to the state and its people. Much has changed since the book's first publication in 1938, when the authors noted, "South Dakota has been, and still is, a pioneer state." But the book vividly recaptures the era when no driver's licenses were required, when liquor could not be sold on election days until after 5:00 PM, when Pierre's recreational groups included polo riders and skeet shooters, when the Morrell packing plant at Sioux Falls offered free tours on weekdays. This unique guide has much more than nostalgia to offer today's readers. Twenty-eight auto tours and nine city tours tell the stories of the state's people and places and offer a fascinating alternative to freeway travel. Essays on major themes such as native peoples, history, architecture, transportation, and recreation provide an authentic self-portrait of 1930s South Dakota in humorous, loving, and literary prose. A new introduction by historian John E. Miller shares the story behind the American Guide series and celebrates those distinctly South Dakotan qualities preserved in this decades-old volume-qualities that hold true today. This time-traveler's guide to South Dakota is an evocative reminder of the state's history and a challenge to contemporary readers who seek to find how that past lives on in the present day.
