4/1 Athenaeum at 1pm - Watching for the Ferris Wheel by Drake Hokanson and Carol Kratz

Join us on Wednesday April 1, 2009 at 1pm for a presentation by Drake Hokanson and Carol Kratz titled Watching for the Ferris Wheel

It will be a lively illustrated presentation on the nature of the American county agricultural fair, the long-haul research for the book, and a bit about the process of getting it published as a large-format, full-color volume.

If you bring you own personal copy Drake and Carol will sign books afterwards. Purebred and Homegrown: America’s County Fairs (University of Wisconsin Press, 2008).

The Athenaeum is located on the second floor of the WSU Library, bluff side. The Athenaeum schedule is available at: http://www.winona.edu/library/athenaeum/
