Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a concise but complete history of the state from the French fur trappers to recent times. (Though it is starting to get a little outdated, if you look at the index "Ventura, Jesse" and "Ethanol" does not appear). It is billed on the back cover as a brief survey, which is exactly what it is. Unfortunately, that led to a number of topics feeling a bit rushed. Nonetheless, it is a good 300 page read for those wanting to get familiar with Minnesota's history or who want a brush-up.
