From the Introduction: "In Minnesota, historic resources are found nearly everywhere - in small towns and cities, in fields and forests, and along rivers and lakes. All of these resources reveal important facts about Minnesota's past. 'Historic preservation' is a term often used to describe protecting historic resources through acts such as preserving archaeological sites and landscapes and reusing older buildings. Oftentimes the notion of historic preservation is extended to retaining our greater history and what can be preserved, like legacy businesses, food traditions, and folkways. 'Cultural resources' refer more broadly to 'the tangible - physical places and objects we can touch - and the intangible - stories, songs, and celebrate ions we experience in the moment.' By contrast, the National Register of Historic Places recognizes historic properties such as districts, sites, buildings, structures, or objects significant in American history, architecture, archaeology engineering, and culture at the state or local level." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the Minnesota State Historic Preservation Office, Department of Administration, administered by the State, Tribal, Local Plans and Grants division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
