Synopsis
Small town Minnesota plays a leading role in Minnesota Memories, a new collection of twenty-seven remembrances written and edited by former Albert Lea resident Joan Claire Graham and Owatonna native Kathy Megyeri.
With tones ranging from melancholy to hilarious, these Minnesota Memories convey an impression of what it is to be grounded in the Midwestern culture of the mid twentieth century. Mature Minnesotans will relate to stories about family secrets, Mom’s good Bavarian china, childhood games, local radio shows, country school, or the Owatonna motel entrepreneurs who were the vanguard of the travel industry boom after World War II.
These true stories invite the reader to empathize. Their richly detailed and good humored narrative evokes similar memories in the minds of readers. Whether as an addition to a collection, a gift, a historical reference, a conversation piece, or merely as a completely enjoyable reading experience, Minnesota Memories is a great choice.

From the Publisher
The publishers wish to create a Minnesota Memories tradition and invite readers to send their best true story for volume 2. They wish to add to Minnesota's recorded history by writing the stories of the common folks.
From the Author
What sets this book apart from other regional memoirs is the humor. These stories are true, but they are told in a natural good humored style that elicits smiles and chuckles from the reader. Although it is fun to read, this book does not make fun of Minnesota and its wonderful people.
