"A Duluthian at heart and a historian by passion, Dierckins brings Duluth's past alive in a conversational narrative about our city at the Head of the Lakes. With intriguing old photos and painstaking research, Dierckins delivers a compelling portrait of this city loved by its residents and millions of visitors." Sam Cook, award-winning author and columnist for the Duluth News Tribune
"Like an actor with a weathered and scarred face, Duluth has a roughhewn and authentic character that fascinates us all. But those scars didn't come cheap. Dierckins's engaging history tells the unvarnished stories of a city forged by grit and resilience in the face of hardship. There is a direct through line from the rough and rugged early years and the entrepreneurial, problem-solving ethos that defines Duluth today." Don Ness, mayor of Duluth, 2008-16
"With Duluth: An Urban Biography, Tony Dierckins provides the book we've been missing for years--a reliable, brisk narrative history of Minnesota's most distinctive city. The author's clear, engaging style conveys tragic and comic events with equal ease. I recommend this book to residents and visitors alike." Barton Sutter, author of Cold Comfort: Life at the Top of the Mapand Duluth poet laureate, 2006
