Long Prairie

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the historical transformation of Long Prairie, the narrative explores its origins as a battleground between the Sioux and Chippewa tribes and its establishment as the first white settlement in Todd County with the Winnebago Agency in 1845. The town evolved through infrastructure changes, such as the transition from river traffic to railroad, and the construction of a notable courthouse in 1883. Long Prairie's main street reflects the dedication of its founders, contributing to the enduring charm and sense of community that characterizes small towns.
