NEW Arcadia Publishing Huron, SD 9781467161732 Images of America Trade PaperbackIn 1879, Marvin Hughitt, president of the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad, looked across the James River at a vast prairie. He envisioned a town that would become a division headquarters for the fast-growing railroad system as it extended west. With that, the town of Huron, South Dakota, was born and immediately attracted new arrivals. These hardy pioneers braved the unknown to settle in the area, acquire land, and earn a living. They built the first churches, schools, and businesses, creating a vibrant and dynamic community. Huron’s central location, its industrious citizens, and the influence of the railroad established the town as an important transportation hub, a contender for the state capital, a location for higher education, and the home of the state fair. This book features historical photographs of the individuals who transformed this region from a prairie into a thriving and influential community during the first half of the 20th century. Jennifer Littlefield is the reference librarian at the Huron Public Library. She has a passion for researching local history and has written several articles for South Dakota History. Louise Van Poll is the executive director of the Dakotaland Museum, which includes three historic sites. She is also a freelance journalist and educator, with a passion for history, teaching, and writing. NEW Arcadia Publishing Huron, SD 9781467161732 Images of America Trade Paperback
