"Organized by region and featuring seven easy-to-follow maps, this guide to Minnesota's house museums showcases nearly two hundred grand mansions, humble homes, log cabins, frontier forts, and pioneer villages that are open to the public. Site histories tell of immigrant struggles and baronial opulence, of political ambition and architectural innovation. Entries detail each sites's cultural and political import, and photographs illustrate key features, from leaded-glass windows to widow's walks. Practical information makes your visit easy to arrange. Whether planning family time on Sunday afternoon or plotting your next vacation, Minnesota Open House is your key to the grandiose and the humble, to meticulously crafted and hauntingly rustic dwellings across the state."--Jacket.
