Synopsis

In 1854, the Grand Excursion brought steamboats up the Mississippi River, loaded with tourists and journalists, to a land of promise and beauty. Soon, immigrants and pioneers, hopeful for new opportunities, embarked on the journey up the river to Lake Pepin, where, on its Minnesota shore, the village of Frontenac was developing. Stroll through Old Frontenac with this book as your companion and experience the village during the 19th century. Trace the roots of the early settlers, see the homes they built, and follow the lives of these men and women as they create the village. Learn about the prominent families who had the means and vision to provide opportunities for all who make Frontenac their home. "The Rest of the Story" is told with more than 1400 historic photographs, extensively researched facts, and shared personal stories, giving new perspective to previously written and oral Frontenac history.
