Moving the Miller's Minnie Moore Mine Mansion by Dave Eggers illustrated by Julia Sardia*

 Mr. Eggers relays the history of an Idaho mansion and its tenacious owner who moves it four miles so she can raise pigs. Mr. Eggers incorporates humor and side comments with a tinges of sarcasm at points. I enjoyed his unique story-telling style (& this unusual piece of history/engineering feat).  A great book when learning about mining & its impact on America's growth.

A true story!

*Highly recommend.
