Witness to Barbarism

I notice, per my last post, that there's a link to Horace Hansen's book and website, Witness to Barbarism. Who knew that the chief prosecutor at Dachau lived in North Oaks and had such an interesting life. Sure, probably everyone with a knowledge of Minnesota history outside high school social studies where they only taught you how to define "travois" - but not me. I've always been partial to the idea that being a citizen of Minnesota should entitle you to a free "Our History" newsletter that details interesting people and places in Minnesota - they could just provide you an extra bin for recycling your junk mail and reprint it on that - heck, charge for profit bulk mailers and extra hundredth of a cent and you could probably fund the whole thing.
