This Storied River: Legend & Lore of the Upper Mississippi

Travel down the mighty upper half of the Mississippi River, from its headwaters in Minnesota, with longtime travel journalist Dennis McCann. Far more than a travel guide, McCann takes readers on an intimate journey through the colorful history, and scenery, of the river that shaped not only the Midwest but the nation.  McCann explores the legends and lore of people and places in the Upper Mississippi River Valley. Each chapter also includes a short list of must-see sites for the modern-day explorer.
