History, travel and politics rolled into one, Doug Mack visited the US territories. He explains what they are, what they aren't and clarifies something that most of us don't understand. Puerto Rico, The Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Guam, The North Mariana Islands...all "belong" to the US but aren't states. Are their inhabitants citizens? Do they vote? Can they field separate Olympic teams? A fascinating overview of how these became part of the US but not quite the US.
