Des Moines: Capital
City, by: historian and academician Orin
Dahl
|
This is a book that, in exciting text and hundreds of historic
photographs, tells of the rugged individualism of the early pioneer, the
struggles of expanded river and land transportation, the establishment,
finally, of the capitol in Des Moines, and of the Fort Dodge stage making a
five day, hundred mile trip through "bottomless pits, impassable
torrents, interminable mud, drenching rain."
