"Meredith Nicholson has done a great work in this masterly study of the Middle West. It is a national, nay, more, an international service which is performed in these illuminating pages, for in interpreting America to Americans the author is also interpreting America, or a very considerable section of it, to the world at large."--_San Francisco Chronicle_.
"It is a study of the Middle West--which is the "Valley" indicated--a portrayal of its people, its life, and its activities so vivid as to have almost the effect of a moving picture."--_Indianapolis Star_.
