The Pillsburys in Minnesota chronicles the family's role as local pioneers in the milling and lumbering industries, the part they played in Minnesota politics, the growth of the University of Minnesota and other civic developments in the Twin Cities metropolitan area.

Lori Sturdevant recounts how succeeding generations of Pillsburys blended private enterprise with public service and probes the enduring effect the family has on the civic culture of the state.
