reviewed North Star State: A Minnesota History Reader on March 04, 2013
North Star State
This book was a good comprehensive overview of the history of Minnesota. The book covers a lot of ground and at times went into too much detail of certain topics making me forget that I was reading a book about Minnesota. However it does a nice job presenting topics that you don't learn in grade school.
