I concede that I erred on the amount of land that was cleared. It was a bad guess. I totally forgot about the Appalachians, etc. I was thinking mainly of the flatlands. Are you sure about Illinois being native prairie? I know that Wisconsin to the North and Missouri to the Southwest was forest, even though Missouri is West of the Mississippi. Where do we find data on the way the US was when this country was settled, as compared to now?
