Ironwood County

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The fictional Ironwood County, created by America author John Schreiber is located between Steele County, Minnesota, Dodge County, Minnesota, and Olmsted County. The leading towns in Ironwood County, Minnesota are Hillcrest, (setting of the novels Hillcrest Journal and Life on the Fly), Paradise, (setting of the novel Passing Through Paradise), Maple Valley, and Cherry Grove (referred to in some of the stories in Tales from 2 A.M.)

The Ironwood County series portrays small towns as realistic microcosms of humanity, not as idyllic, romantic locales nor as backwater societies.
