Pipestone ~ A History

Description

A History of Pipestone National Monument Minnesota

This book is intended to present a detailed, accurate account of the area now included within Pipestone National Monument during the period since the first official, direct Federal contact with it.

The complexity of this century and a quarter of contact makes it necessary to limit the consideration that has been given to such important topics as the aboriginal occupation of the area, the geographic setting, and the sizable body of local folklore arising from the interaction  of Indian legend and Victorian romanticism.

This book (printed in 1965) is loaded with interesting information and old photographs.
