One hundred and fifty years of Iowa history comes alive in these pages, which allows us to travel when there were no roads, to the conquest of the forests and the rolling prairies, to rivalries in the search for land and mines, to the laying of towns, and the building of schools, churches, colleges, railroads, and modem highways. At the heart of every tale are the men and women whose adventures made history -- and made the state of Iowa.
Readable as a whole, or entry by entry, this book is thoroughly informative and entertaining. Between Two Rivers captures the rigors and dangers, the charms and surprise, and, more than anything, the rich humanity of Iowa's extraordinary history.
