Check out Patrick Coleman’s 150 Best Minnesota Books blog.

Coleman, the Minnesota Historical Society’s acquisition librarian, will over the course of this sesquicentennial year designate the greatest 150 Minnesota books. (The list is currently at number 18.) He will anoint these books twice a month.

Coleman writes, “We realize that any such list is subjective and open to other opinions, which we strongly encourage.” He further states that readers should feel free to both add to and take issue with his selections.
