DES MOINES, Iowa - TelAve -- Reedy Press is pleased to announce the release of our newest guidebook, Amazing Iowa, by Michelle Sprout Murray.

Whether you're a native, a recent resident, or just passing through, these stories of the weird, wild, and wonderful people and places of the great state of Iowa are waiting for you. Take a peek inside and you'll find people you've heard about in the news... as well as those you should have heard about.

Learn about mobsters and artists (and why they loved to hide out here), musicians and authors (and why they seemed to flourish here), astronauts and inventors (and how they dreamed big), and athletes and coaches (and how they put Iowa in the spotlight).

Of course, you'll discover the only remaining Frank Lloyd Wright–designed hotel in the world, Iowa's Hollywood and Broadway connections, and tantalizing foods that will make your mouth water. If that's not enough, check out the world record holder for hiccups; the woman whose daughter never had a Rice Krispie Treat, although her mom invented them; or some of the most haunted buildings and bridges in America, all found in this amazing state!
