Highways & Trails of the WPAA Guide to the Heritage Landscape of North Dakota
The WPA (Works Progress Administration) guide to North Dakota, North Dakota: A Guide to the Northern Prairie State, published in 1938, presented ten auto tours of the state as a guide to travelers. The Center for Heritage Renewal, North Dakota State University, with transportation enhancement funding from the North Dakota Department of Transportation, is working to research and reconstitute the WPA tours as a guide for independent travelers of the heritage landscape. Early and preliminary fruits of this project are published here.
