This history of the Duluth Diocese of the Catholic Church, which was formed in 1889 and embraced the counties of Aitkin, Becker, Beltrami, Carlton, Cass, Clay, Cook, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Itasca, Kittson, Lake, Marshal, Norman, Pine, Polk, and St. Louis, includes short biographies of early missionaries in Northern Minnesota. It also has histories and photographs of some early Catholic churches, schools, orphanages, and hospitals, information on Indian missions and on the Sisters of St. Benedict, who founded Duluth's St. Mary's Hospital and four other hospitals in the diocese. The book also provides a list of priests who worked in the diocese from 1889 to 1914.
The front side of "Minnesota Bikeways: Map 15 - North Central Minnesota" contains a legend of signs and symbols, the larger bikeways map, and the map index. The back side contains: a list of county, municipal, state, and federal parks, national and state forests, and state recreation areas covered in the map; a checklist of touring supplies with a diagram of where to put supplies on a bike; a "potpourri" article; and inset maps of Grand Rapids, Coleraine, Deer River, Bovey, Taconite, and Marble. MnDOT's bikeway maps serve as a reference guide illustrating major historical and cultural points of interest in Minnesota, public park lands and facilities, equipment, and safety information. They also depict road analyses for bicycle travel, location of paved road shoulders and off-road bikeways, and controlled access roads where bicycles are prohibited. There are 54 maps in the Statewide Series (1979-1983), 4 maps in the Statewide Quadrant Series (1986-1993), and 2 maps in the Metro Series (1989). Legislatively mandated, these maps were prepared as convenient guides to help bicyclists select their routes. Each map is unique and signifies a historical reference to the state of bicycle facilities at the time of publication.

Trout Lake beneficiation (or benefication) plant near Coleraine was completed in 1909-1910, to raise the iron content of lean, sandy ores. Beneficiation (or benefication) is one of a variety of process that treats the raw iron ore to separate the ore into the usable mineral and the part of the ore that is unusable (gangue).
