Mr El-Hai takes you on a journey of by gone days. The unique Minnesota that few remember. The peculiar and the grand. The humerous and the Regal. Informative and enjoyable reading.

I loved this book. The pictures of the buildings and structures of Minnesota past were amazing to see. It is kind of sad too, it's too bad that I'll never see some of this great old architecture or some of the fun places that were included, but I am glad they are at least preserved in this book. I love looking at old pictures and imagining how things were back then and this book is full of them. Highly recommended!

Excellent and entertaining book for current and former Minnesota residents, as well as those interested in cultural and historical documentation. While only a small sampling of lost buildings and places, it nonetheless brings back memories for many and solidifies an appreciation for the past.
