Only in the Midwest is civic pride measured by the size of a towns roadside sculpture. Muchloved monuments and largerthanlife replicas add character to their surroundings, intriguing and amusing visitors as they pass through town. Midwest Marvels is not your typical guidebook. Regional travel expert Eric Dregni takes the reader on a slightly offcenter tour of the bizarreand the beautifulacross Iowa, Minnesota, the Dakotas, and Wisconsin, and directs roadtrippers to the oneofakind oddities that cause drivers to turn off the interstate in awe.Intricate architecture and historical monuments often reveal the soul of a city, but in Audubon, Iowa, visitors find a thirtyfoot, fortyfiveton talking bull erected as a monument to the beef industry. In Minnesota a tourist can view monuments to Paul Bunyan or visit the Spam Museum, and North Dakota boasts a fortyfivefoot tower of discarded oil cans, trumped only by the worlds tallest structure: a TV tower jutting nearly a half mile into the sky. Everyone is familiar with South Dakotas Mount Rushmore and Corn Palace, but less famous is the unique Outhouse Museum. Of course, only in Wisconsin can a couple get married in the mouth of a 145foot muskie.Readers will appreciate the countless hours Dregni has spent searching for the biggest, the smallest, the oddest, the most mysterious, and the most outrageous tourist attractions. Complete with detailed descriptions, driving directions, and numerous photographs, Midwest Marvels is a musthave for everyone from armchair travelers to seasoned road warriors planning a trip through the heart of the country.Born in the shadow of the Worlds Largest SixPack in La Crosse, Wisconsin, Eric Dregni is a freelance writer for the Rake and the Minneapolis Star Tribune. He is the author of several books, including Minnesota Marvels: Roadside Attractions in the Land of Lakes (Minnesota, 2001), The Scooter Bible, Ads That Put America on Wheels, and, most recently, Lets Go Bowling! He lives in Minneapolis.
