Pirates on the Prairie a "Must Read"

Pirates on the Prairie was reviewed in Tuesday's Rochester, MN Post-Bulletin!

Sports editor, Craig Swalboski, writes ". . . the basketball and the history are so compelling in this tome that I recommend it for anyone who is interested in either of the topics."

Swalboski, continues, "As good as the story is, the history was -- for me at least -- equally compelling. The first quarter of the book sets the scene of what life was like in and near Halstad -- it was among hundreds of similar dots on the map in the early 1950s in states like Minnesota and North Dakota."
