2018 Nebraska Book Award The state of Nebraska has a rich and varied culture, from the eastern metropolitan cities of Omaha and Lincoln to the ranches of the western Sand Hills. The first atlas of Nebraska published in over thirty years, this collection chronicles the history of the state with more than three hundred original, full-color maps accompanied by extended explanatory text. Far more than simply the geography of Nebraska, this atlas explores a myriad of subjects from Native Americans to settlement patterns, agricultural ventures to employment, and voting records to crime rates. These detailed and beautifully designed maps convey the significance of the state, capturing the essence of its people and land. This volume promises to be an essential reference tool to enjoy for many years to come.

At the request of the U.S.Bureau of Land Management, the Gold Creek (OR-003-033) and Sperry Creek (OR-003-035) Wilderness Study Areas, comprising approximately 15,780 and 5,600 acres, respectively, were evaluated for mineral resources and mineral resource potential. Throughout this report, "wilderness study area" and "study area" refer to the combined 21,380 acres for which mineral surveys were requested. The U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Mines conducted geologic, geochemical, and geophysical surveys to assess the identified mineral resources (known) and mineral resource potential (unknown) of the study area. Field work for this report was carried out in 1987, 1988, and 1989.
