Minnesota Memories 2

Joan Claire Graham and 34 other ordinary folks from across Minnesota share their most extraordinary stories in this collection of 48 memories. From the comedy of a failed ski lesson to the heroism of a bus driver rescuing kids during the famous 1940 blizzard, these true stories take the reader on an amazing trip back to times, people, and events worth remembering. Writers from International Falls to Albert Lea, Winona to Adrian, Duluth to St. Clair and many points between provide a rich mix of tones voices, and writing styles. The stories show what it is to be grounded in the Midwest values of the 20th Century and prove that truth is stranger and more wonderful than fiction. Some stories are funny, others are sad, heroic, or merely reflective, but all capture a look at 20th Century life in the Midwest.Graham, Joan Claire is the author of 'Minnesota Memories 2' with ISBN 9780971197114 and ISBN 0971197113.
