Introduction

Small-town festivals and big-city theater. Rodeo, ragtime, riverboats and the country’s breadbasket.

Farther west, the Great Plains take a dramatic geographic turn to broad expanses of prairie where homesteaders and ranchers tamed a remote and breathtaking landscape. Two centuries of commerce and cultural cross currents now render a rich traveling experience in this region, whether you’re on back-country roads or in smart urban centers.
