- Franz Rickaby, one of only a handful of folk song collectors active in Minnesota, wrote in the 1920s that "in the logging camp the hegemony in song belonged to the Irish." Eoin McKiernan Library Director Brian Miller has spent over 15 years investigating songs and other Irish cultural expressions in logging-era Minnesota. Join him for this audiovisual exploration of Rum River logging camp jig dancers, Bemidji street corner ballad singers and Irish fiddlers who raised the roof on the Iron Range.
