Details:
Join us for a captivating visit with local author Philip Neese at the library, where he will discuss his book, *The DO Generation*. This intriguing work reveals the true, often overlooked history of northern Minnesota, challenging the stereotype of tranquil lakes and small towns. Through a series of interviews, Neese shares compelling stories that encompass war experiences, the mafia's presence in the Midwest, and the harsh realities of homesteading in rural Minnesota's tundra. An eye-opener to the resilient lives of those who faced numerous challenges, Neese’s narrative reflects his diverse experiences as a retired police officer, journalist, and community leader. This event is free, family-friendly, and requires no registration. It is sponsored by the Friends of the Aitkin Public Library.
