Quick . . . what’s the capital of
Missouri? What state has Augusta as
its capital?
After viewing Just the Facts:
America’s State Capitals, those questions will be easy to answer. The
interactive format of this DVD invites viewers to test their knowledge of our
state capitals and makes watching (and learning!) fun for all ages.
The fast-paced program intertwines
history and geography with points of interest and fascinating facts about the
50 capital cities. Viewers learn,
for example, that Tallahassee was the only Southern capital that was not
captured by the Union during the Civil War and that it also lays claim to
Tarzan and the Creature from the Black Lagoon.
The segment on Boston includes
that famous Tea Party, a quick tour of the Freedom Trail, and a swan boat,
among other interesting sights and facts.
Each state capital is unique, and
viewers will enjoy learning about them all.
