This is a completely new text on North America, structured around a thematic and issues-based approach and containing up-to-date material and statistics. There is coverage of both the USA and Canada, highlighting their similarities and differences. The continent lends itself to geographical studies of urbanization, natural hazards, tourism, leisure and transport, as well as studies of environments, from desert through to ice. All the physical, human and environmental topics are exemplified by detailed case studies supported by maps, photographs and newspaper extracts, and with related questions and tasks. The book is specifically aimed at 16 to 19-year-old students but is also appropriate for general interest.
