Illustrated by Doug Bowles
Nicknamed the "world's breadbasket," the contributions from the
great state of Kansas reverberate far beyond its borders. Kansas
has given us leaders in politics (Dwight D. Eisenhower), aviation
(Amelia Earhart); and sports (Wilt Chamberlain); leads our nation
in wheat production; and fuels our Hollywood image of the wild West
(Dodge City). From A-Z, S is for Sunflower explores the broad plain
of history and people that make up the state of Kansas.
