Midwest Bedrock with Author Kevin Koch

Join local author Kevin Koch to discuss his book, Midwest Bedrock: The Search for Nature’s Soul in America’s Heartland.

What exactly is the Midwest? Kevin Koch’s search for the answer is equal parts natural history, memoir, and travelogue, and includes a chapter-long visit to all twelve midwestern states. From the headwater of the Mississippi at Lake Itasca, to Wisconsin’s Ice Age Trail, to to Iowa’s Effigy Mounds, to Ohio’s Hocking Hills, Koch is an attentive and thoughtful guide, who leads readers to the natural wonders and beauty of America’s heartland.

Midwest Bedrock eloquently redefines and reimagines that fuzzy obscure geographic region that outsiders often describe as drive-through or fly-over country.

Kevin Koch is Professor of English at Loras College in Dubuque, Iowa.

RSVP recommended.
