Interrupted Lives: The History of Tuberculosis in Minnesota and Glen Lake Sanatorium tells of how in the first half of the twentieth century, so many TB patients were housed as they fought their illness. Treatment methods changed over time, success with recovery varied, and Krugerud examines all of it, offering the often stark reality of this terrible disease, and the heart-warming stories of people suffering from it and those who sought to cure them.
About the Author: Mary Krugerud is an independent researcher-historian and a retired director of grant development for Normandale Community College in Bloomington, MN.
