Ethnic Landscapes of America

Dr. John A. Cross serves as Professor in the Department of Geography and Urban Planning at the University of Wisconsin at Oshkosh.

“The book is a comprehensive, richly illustrated volume (using more than 300 of the author’s own full-color photographs and maps) that traces how diverse ethnic groups have settled and then shaped the U.S. landscape. … Cross has produced a beautiful book, a volume of enduring value, and a personal testament to the author’s own fascination with the cultural landscapes he has encountered.” (William Wyckoff, The AAG Review of Book, Vol. 06 (04), 2018)​
