About
Join the Dakota County Historical Society for our monthly book club, "Books From Our Shelves." Each book selected relates to an aspect of Minnesota history.
June's book is "Across America on an Emigrant Train," by Jim Murphy.
This book follows an account of Robert Louis Stevenson's twelve day journey from New York to California in 1879. Interwoven throughout the story is a history of the building of the transcontinental railroad and the settling of the West.
Books From Our Shelves is a monthly book club that meets on the second Thursday of each month listed below. Each session runs from 7 p.m. - 8 p.m.
Registration for the event is not required, but allows us to track attendance and provide updates on the event with attendees. Please check back later for updates. Books selected are subject to change.
