What Others are Saying:

"I did a number of shows in the Valley, from Red Wing to La Crosse and always wanted to stop and look around. Pat Middleton's guide makes me feel I'm riding home. That stretch of river is one of the loveliest places in America, and Pat deserves a big cheer."  ~ Garrison Keillor, A Prairie Home Companion

"I've lived here all my life, yet you opened up a whole new world for me and I appreciate that."  ~ Winona Reader

"I drove the Great River Road from St. Paul to St. Louis last August with this book at my side.  When we passed out of its parameters, we felt a sense of loss."  ~  Reviewer, St. Louis Post Dispatch
