Book Description
A comprehensive history of a state thought by many to be the most livable. In this volume, William Lass tells the story of Minnesota, a state that evolved from many cultures, from its beginnings to the present. This history not only provides descriptions of the essential events of Minnesota's past but also offers an interpretation of major trends and characteristics of the state and its distinctiveness within the context of the nation's story.
About The Author
William E. Lass is professor of history at Mankato State University. He lives in Mankato, Minnesota.
Reader Reviews
William Lass's state history is informative and interesting. Most of his prose is easily readable. Exceptions are the segments in which Prof. Lass attempts to describe maps in words without showing them. (Unfortunately, one of the longest such segments is in the opening chapter.) The first half of the book is organized chronologically and covers from archaeological times until shortly after statehood. The second half is organized thematically and covers the time period since about 1870. Discussions of Minnesota's industries, politics, and politicians frequent this section.
