- Summary:
- "Frogtown is a discerning portrait of an ethnically mixed neighborhood that lies within the shadow of the Minnesota State Capitol near downtown St. Paul. Wing Young Huie combines 130 compelling black-and-white photographs, some 50 quotes from talks with residents, and his own commentary to produce a powerful depiction of life on Frogtown's streets and front porches, in its kitchens and backyards, stores and churches. The images are documentary in nature, but the perspective is that of an artist who leaves meanings open to interpretation." --Book Jacket.
