The long-awaited republication of this fascinating travel guide to Minnesota. Due to popular demand, this classic guides to the highways and back roads of Minnesota is back in print. The unique purpose behind this previously hard-to-find travel companion is to explore the history of towns along the most well-traveled highways of this state. The reader will learn the stories behind the road signs-not only why towns formed where they did and how they were named, but also local anecdotes, historical accounts, and personal glimpses. The volume is enlivened by maps, illustrations, and historical photographs. Among the fascinating stories is that of Hibbing, Minnesota, which at one point had to be moved several miles because of its situation atop rich deposits of iron ore, and later gave birth to the Greyhound Bus Line.
