Early in US history, the Chesapeake Bay region became home to many people. Its navigable waterways, abundant natural resources, and beautiful scenes drew first Native American tribes, and then settlers by the thousands. Today, it continues to grow! Through historical facts, maps, and detailed sidebars, readers will learn all about the growth of the Chesapeake Bay region. Including demographic and population statistics and a close look at the major industries, the book will immerse readers in the people of this unique estuary. Vivid photographs will introduce the basic geography of the region, while readers take on conservation concepts that come with a growing population.
