Our Lady of the Prairie: Thisbe Nissen

Book Cover: Our Lady of the Prairie by Thisbe Nissen

In this edition of Talk of Iowa, Charity Nebbe is joined by author Thisbe Nissen. Her latest book is Our Lady of the Prairie.  

Thisbe is originally from New York, and she lived in Iowa for eleven years. Although she changes most of the place names, Iowans will likely recognize several eastern Iowa places and communities. It also includes the story of a wedding day tornado.

In last portion of the program, we hear from Debra Carneol of North Liberty. She will be running the World Marathon Challenge.
