Last year, author Sylvia Wendel set out on an exciting journey traveling from California to explore and document one of America’s last frontiers…North Dakota.
Sylvia spent part of her trip in our corner of the state last summer experiencing area accommodations and gathering information from locals such as Bill Anderson (famous here for his weekly column The Rooster Crows). She spent a couple days at Coteau des Prairies Lodge and even went on a farm tour with Joe Breker.
Her travels brought her all around our great state and her book is packed with fascinating bits of history and culture she gleaned along the way. She also provides numerous thoughtful and thorough reviews for hospitality and dining establishments from the four corners of the state and everywhere in between. This is a great book for anyone who wants to plan a road trip in North Dakota. The book is titled North Dakota Curious: A New Guide to the State. You can purchase the Kindle edition on Amazon for only $2.99. It doesn’t appear to be available in print at this time.
In addition to her mention of our ‘soaring ceilings’ and ‘windows that go on for days’, we love the following quote from Sylvia’s book about the lodge:

A guide to the last frontier. It makes me want to go!
