Take a fascinating tour through history with assistance from the WPA. A compilation of everything anyone wanted to know about North Dakota during the Depression years, this guide was the product of the Federal Writers' Project of the Works Progress Administration. Hundreds of writers combed the state, capturing values, beliefs, and customs as well as documentation and descriptions of what existed. Nuggets of treasure leap from the pages, from peony shows to the long-vanished boat dock at Minnewaukan. This 1930s travel guide, with its road tours, is a great companion for history and travel buffs.
