Growing Up Three Hollers from Lake Wobegon

In this collection of humerous and touching essays, Tudor shares stories of growing up in rural Zumbrota, Minnesota. She vividly depicts memorable scenes from her ice skating on a secluded pond, herding cows on a relatives’s dairy farm, eating the dreaded Norwegian lutefisk ( a Christmas tradition ), and roaming the streets of the small town with its cherished public library and scenic covered bridge. Filled with the patriotism, hard work, and dedication that characterized her Scandinavian ancestors, Tudor’s essays capture a way of life that is quickly disappearing from the modern American landscape- a way of life that will be alive in the imaginations of her readers for years to come.
