Moving the Millers' Minnie Moore Mine Mansion: A True Story

<p><b>Author Dave Eggers and artist Júlia Sardà spin a quirky historical event into a whimsical and tall-ish true tale of ingenuity.</b><br><br>It all started when John “Minnie” Moore built a mine in Idaho and sold it to Englishman Henry Miller. Then Henry married a local lass named Annie and built her a mansion. After Henry died and Annie was hoodwinked – losing all <i>but </i>the mansion – she and her son took to raising pigs, as some are wont to do. But the town wanted those pigs <i>out.</i> Who could have guessed that Annie would remove the whole mansion instead – rolling it away slowly on logs – while she and her son were still living in it?<br><br>Narrated with metafictional flair, make way for history as only Dave Eggers could stage it.</p>
