From the Publisher
Land of 10,000 lakes reads the legend on Minnesota license plates. In reality, there are more than 15,000 lakes-and that's only if you count the big ones. Minnesota's name is synonymous with tranquil lakes, the loon's haunting call, and farmland stretching over rolling hills. From the prairies in the southwest to the rocky, pine-rimmed north shore of Lake Superior, this is a land rich in beauty. As you learn more about the state that spawned Garrison Keillor's popular Lake Wobegon Days, you'll come away with an appreciation for the state's many charms, as well as with a store of fun facts including these: The Twin Cities-St. Paul and Minneapolis-are second only to New York City in the number of theaters per capita; "Minnesota" is composed of 2 Dakota words that mean cloudy or sky-tinted waters; and over 250,000 Minnesotans take to the ice in winter to fish-Minnesota also ranks first in the nation in the number of fishing licenses per capita.
About the Author
