Cindy will share her book “We Suffered Much”, which tells the story of Charles Wood Irish who charted a path for the Chicago & North Western Railroad, beginning in Tracy, Minnesota, and heading toward gold-rich Deadwood in the Dakota Territory. His story is entwined with the famous Ingalls family on the railroad and at Silver Lake railroad camp. Don’t miss this fascinating story!
