Introduction

The traditional pudding: was proved in the eating; in other words /as found appetizing, wholesome, and complete with all the inredients which a good pudding should contain. Twenty years of publication has proved the Dictionary of Minneapolis; it has in all the essential facts about the city and its people, presented in a concise, readable and accessible form. Each year sees it better established and more generally regarded as a permanent and useful institution of the city.

The Dictionary of Minneapolis is:

The only comprehensive compendium of information about Minneapolis.

The only handbook for every day use by the people of the city.

The most complete and practical guide for the visitor.

An invaluable means of conveying information about the city to interested people living elsewhere.

In the latter capacity it has been the means of bringing many people to Minneapolis both as visitors and as permanent residents.

Each year the Dictionary is thoroughly revised.
