A wonderful book -- whether you're Minnesotan or not

True to its name, this book is full of crazy facts about Minnesota. Even though I've lived in Minnesota my whole life, I found myself constantly surprised at the little blurbs I read and learned many new facts. This book would be perfect to set on a coffee table, or to send to guests visiting Minnesota. If you're not from Minnesota, it is a great read and full of interesting things! I definitely recommend it. Neidt's humor shines through the book to make it a very interesting and hard-to-put-down.
