A unique history of Nebraska is presented in these pages, drawing on fifty-eight short topical chapters and a rich gallery of illustrations. Professor Frederick C. Luebke?s lifelong commitment to the study of his state informs the book in every detail, as does his concern for clear and readable narrative. The treasure trove of images, many never published before, cast new light on many aspects of Nebraska?s history. These include the culture of the state?s Native peoples and their lives today, the building of the transcontinental railroad, the hardship endured by European immigrants, and the contributions of women, African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian Americans to the state. This is a book that every Nebraskan will want to own, read, and enjoy. ø This second edition includes updated chapters on the current social, economic, and political climate of Nebraska and some new illustrations.

Excerpt from Omaha Illustrated: A History of the Pioneer Period and the Omaha of to-Day; Embracing Reliable Statistics and Information, With Over Two Hundred Illustrations, Including Prominent Buildings, Portraits and Sketches of Leading Citizens Through no fault of the publishers there have been a few unavoidable omissions in the matter ofillustrations, both portraits and buildings. Several prominent citizens whose portraits would have made the book more complete, were absent from the city until too late to admit of making engrav ings. The unfinished state of some few buildings, also, of which it was impossible to obtain even comprehensive drawings, rendered it impracticable to have satisfactory cuts made.
