The Spirited History of Minnehaha Falls

Author Karen E. Cooper (When Minnehaha Flowed Whiskey) will share the history of shady operators, corrupt police, unescorted women, drinking, and carousing that dismayed Minnehaha Falls’s neighbors from the 1880s-1912.

This event is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant provided by the Traverse des Sioux Library Cooperative, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
