I've got this relational mySQL table that ties peopleIDs from the people
table to the states IDs

____peopleID_______stateID
____1______________1____
____2______________4____
____3______________5____

people table is like this;

___peopleID_____FName_____
___1____________joe________
___2____________bob_______
___3____________charlie_____

and finally the state table goes like this;

___stateID_____State_______
_______1_______california____
_______2_______new york____
_______3_______washington__
_______4_______texas_______
_______5_______florida______

What's the most straightforward way to achieve the following view with one
SQL statement?

____peopleID__________stateID_____________
____1_(joe)___________1__(california)_____
____2_(bob)___________4__(texas)__________
____3_(charlie)_______5__(florida)________
