Held in conjunction with the book signing will be a free Woolen Mill slideshow program. The presenter is author Jeff Jarvis of Morristown, MN.

About the Book:
YARNS: Homespun Tales from Faribault Woolen Mill is a collection of stories about the old timers from the Faribault Woolen Mill. Gain an understanding of the Woolen Mill’s culture and blanket-making process in personal stories from people that worked at the mill. Through this book, learn how the company survived devastating fires, the Great Depression, two World Wars, and the rise of technology to become the lone fully-integrated woolen mill in the entire United States. This book provides a glimpse of how an early manufacturing process, state-of the-art equipment, smart business, and a small town culture all combined to form a business that would become known the world over for quality and excellence.
