THE INTERIOR B ORDERLANDS Regional Identity in the Midwest and Great Plains EDITED BY JON K. LAUCK, UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH DAKOTA Where does the Midwest end and the Great Plains begin? And does it matter? The authors of essays in this collection believe such questions are important to understanding how regional identity forms and persists—or erodes and even disappears. The transition zone between the American Midwest and the Great Plains is a borderland. –Jon K. Lauck
