From the dust jacket-

"The State itself, even to those who have never been there, has always been full of associations. It seems, somehow, typically American, although Indiana as a State is in reality not typical of the corn-belt or of an industrial State. Wide topographical variations, a close economic balance between agriculture and industry, and the fact that it is directly in the path of the Nation's greatest east-west traffic flow, combine to make it almost a microcosm of the United States."
