Product Description

“In 1976, Alan Minskoff embarked on a tour of Idaho to explore the future of the state’s small-towns and record what was special about them in the voices of residents and unique characters and in his own intuitive perceptions about rooting one’s identity to place. Forty-plus years later, he returns to those towns to record in flashbacks and new impressions his love for the towns, the old buildings, the people, the food, and especially the best sources for pie. As a poet, journalist, teacher, and grandfather, he offers in The Idaho Traveler a colorful historical and culinary tour, revisiting the miles of contemplative two-lane blacktop that tie one town to the next. From Paris to Oakley to Idaho City to Wallace, this book is a traveling companion to our own impressions.”
