Iowa State Fair
More than 150 years old and still going strong, the Iowa State Fair is an American institution, one that was recently named by author Patricia Schultz as one of the1000 Places to See Before You Die. Once an opportunity for country folk to come to town and to experience the community of fellow farmers, today the fair attracts over one million attendees from urban and suburban locales longing for a taste of real America. The first history of the Iowa State Fair in nearly half a century, Iowa State Fair examines this extraordinary confluence of cows and corn dogs, Midwestern culture and classic Americana.
