Today’s Minneapolis Star-Tribune mentions my latest book, Hittin’ the Trail: Day Hiking the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway, in its “Bedside Table” feature. Written by readers, the feature tells what titles Twin Cities book lovers are enjoying and why. If you’re a Strib subscriber, the article can be found on page E12; if not, it’s available online.
A special thanks to Chapter2Books in Hudson, Wis., for hosting the book signing of my latest hiking guidebook, Hittin’ the Trail: Day Hiking the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway on Saturday. I signed and sold every one of copies as well as a few of my older titles. Day Hiking the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway features more than 70 Minnesota and Wisconsin trails along the St. Croix and Namekagon rivers. The National Park Service unit runs more than 250 miles from Prescott, Wis., north to near Solon Springs, Wis., and east from the Danbury, Wis., area to near Cable, Wis. It boasts seven state parks on or near its shores, including Hudson’s own Willow River State Park; Chapter2Books is located at 226 Locust St. in historic downtown Hudson.
