USA

by David C. Hall, Cynthia Reschke

A further title in the brick series, USA is a pictorial journey across the vast territory of the United States. The varied landscapes and regions come together in an impressive way, while at the same time the reader is deeply moved by the multiplicity of culture—the famous "melting pot" of countries—that shaped the character and the progressive spirit of this country. Nature, architecture, culture, and people are the strokes of color in this rainbow, which in its entirety results in a harmonic whole.
