Summary: Minnesota Real and Imagined
Comment: This book isn't for everyone, but Minnesotans should strongly consider reading it. This book is a collection of essays on and about Minnesota and its citizens. Some are rather light-hearted as they detail our recreation and geographic space, while others are more intellectually-based in our religion and politics. Each is very well written and leave one with a better understanding of who and what we are.

The book is a bit out dated as it speaks of Jesse Ventura in the present tense, but it still is recent enough that many of the programs and ideals described are still around. Unfortunately, our new governor seems bent on gutting our state government in the name of fiscal reform, but things like the "Minnesota Miracle" and our ethnic heritage remain.

Again, if you life in California or New Jersey, this may not be relavant, but Minnesotans should strongly consider it.
