Minnesota's Lost Towns Northern Edition II

Most Minnesotans have a lost town. Everywhere Rhonda traveled throughout the state, people shared their stories and their towns with her. Each new discovery led to more tales of northern Minnesota’s lost towns. Join us as we journey to northern Minnesota’s past once again. Covering all new towns and communities, nearly 130 of them, the book is filled with photos and tales that once again prove history is in our own backyards. Historians, tourists, genealogists and anyone who loves a good story is sure to enjoy this second round of Northern Minnesota lost towns.

Rhonda Fochs of Motley, MN After several years of working in the public and private sector, doing everything from assembling Tonka Toy trucks (when they were made in America), working in a LP record distribution warehouse, serving in a variety of public governmental roles, managing a construction office, to becoming a social studies teacher at the age of forty-two, Rhonda is recently retired. Her passion for history, especially local and regional history, has resulted in the Minnesota’s Lost Towns series which chronicles Minnesota used-to-be towns and communities. As she and her family (including the dog)  travel the state, north, east, south and west, she is now working on the next books in the series. She is also presently working on a book detailing other regional points of interest. You can learn more about Rhonda and her books at www.rhondafochs.weebly.com or at   www.facebook.com/MinnesotasLostTowns.
