Everyone's Country Estate A History of Minnesota's State Parks

In 1891 Minnesota established its first state park at Lake Itasca, the headwaters of the Mississippi River. In the century that followed, Minnesotans and tourists from other states have enjoyed hiking, picnicking, fishing, camping, canoeing, and skiing at Itasca and Minnesota's 64 other state parks. This helpful guide to the past in the parks will be welcomed by people who regularly visit a favorite Minnesota park, people who have set out to visit every park, and people who are newly discovering the parks' wonders.Meyer, Roy W. is the author of 'Everyone's Country Estate A History of Minnesota's State Parks' with ISBN 9780873512664 and ISBN 0873512669.
