More about the book

Altoona's transformation from a small prairie town to the "Entertainment Capital of Iowa" is marked by the arrival of trains, planes, and automobiles. The construction of Interstate 80 boosted tourism, making it home to notable attractions like Adventureland Park and Prairie Meadows Racetrack and Casino. The town also boasts a rich history of innovation, with residents like Robert Townsend and George Kurtzweil contributing groundbreaking ideas. This blend of traditional small-town charm and progressive vision creates a distinctive community identity.
