SUMMARY:"Tennis in the Northland" Book Program and Signing
DESCRIPTION:Tennis in the Northland is a book about Minnesota's high school tennis champions and the coaches who helped them become successful. It is a comprehensive 75-year history\,\n\nbeginning in the first year of state competition in 1929.\n\nFeatured in the book are narrative profiles of all the singles and doubles champions\; sketches of prominent Minnesota tennis families\, teaching pros\, patrons\, and media reporters\; and stories about successful teams.\n\nThe book also includes stories about girls playing on boys' teams before Title IX\, dark horse teams such as St. James\, dynasty teams such as Edina\, and many fun facts about former champions. For example\, one future champion missed his streetcar and so missed the tournament his junior year. Another is one of the creators of the play "Triple Espresso." Another had a tennis scorebook named after him\, and still another was the lead prosecutor at the Charles Manson trial (and author of the book Helter Skelter).\n\nTennis in the Northland's author Jim Holden will present his book\, along with excerpts from his book that relate directly to the great high school tennis right here in McLeod County. Mr. Holden would love to hear your memories of McLeod County high school tennis and from current tennis players and what the sport means to them. Jim will also be signing books after the program\, so you can bring yours along\, or pick one up at the Museums gift shop\, where they can be purchased for $34.95 plus tax.
