The Saint Paul Almanac is the only guidebook to Minnesota's capital city, St. Paul, as well as an experiment in democratic publishing—a literary campfire around which the diverse Saint Paul community gathers to share our stories. Read local residents' reviews of our ma-and-pa restaurants and our corner bars. Grab a copy of the Almanac and come with us to explore St. Paul's festivals, parades, and exhibits. Celebrate our small-town manners and our big-city ways. Sample our poetry, fiction, trivia and recipes! St. Paul is as much a state of mind as a place. Come on in!
