REMEMBER THE PHONY LETTER ?

In 1988 , the Lester Prairie Journal was the victim of a phony letter to the editor . That story and many more are recounted in Dale Kovar ’ s book about 50 years of work at local newspapers . Other stories include an interview with basketball star Kay Konerza , and a tracing of area newspapers all having their roots connected to Lester Prairie . Copies available at the Herald Journal office in Winsted , or see more info online at bit . ly / kovar .
