What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · June 11, 2026
This is a braille-format edition of a social studies textbook covering the regions of the United States, produced by the American Printing House for the Blind (APH) for the Louis database — APH's catalog of accessible textbooks and materials for students with visual impairments. It's intended for blind or low-vision students who read braille and are studying U.S. geography and regional social studies, typically at the elementary or middle school level. At 18 pounds, this is a multi-volume braille set — braille transcription significantly expands the physical size of print books, so expect several bound volumes. This item is Federal Quota eligible, meaning it can be purchased through a state's annual Federal Quota funds allocated for students who are legally blind, which is the most common funding path for APH materials. Note that this product is listed as discontinued, so availability may be limited to remaining stock.
