<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Alan Minskoff's The Idaho Traveler is a field day for road trippers, a foodie's feast tour and every wanderer's dream-trek through the great Gem State. Minskoff shows us the route down the Idaho Pie Trail, meandering from the Wayside Cafâe in Heyburn, Idaho, to the Pie Safe Bakery and Kitchen in Deary. Along the way, we meet up with locavores and librarians, rural mayors and councilwomen. This book is the holistic testament to the human, the historic, and the gustatory delights of the state of Idaho we have all been waiting for"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The Idaho Traveler is the result of a journey started in 1976, when Alan Minskoff traveled the state of Idaho as part of the nation's bicentennial celebration. Over two years, he visited 24 communities, held town meetings and edited two issues of Idaho Heritage magazine. Recently, he had the opportunity to get back to those places. Writing this book is both a celebration of his adopted state, its "people, places and food, "and a thank you to the hundreds of folks who have helped in his work as an editor, writer and teacher. <p> Minskoff explores the oft ignored treasures of small-town Idaho. From historic buildings and sites to the mom-and-pop restaurants that offer the best pie and breakfast in the Gem State. Interviews with long-time residents and newcomers alike illustrate this paean to Idaho and captures the essence of what defines Idaho's unique character.
