Project Overview
The 1970s were more than big hair, mirror balls and leisure suits. No longer was Minnesota merely a vague, snow-covered outpost in the American consciousness. It was a place of note and consequence, a state of presidential candidates, grassroots activism and Mary Tyler Moore. Join us as authors Thomas Saylor and Dave Kenney explain it all.
