Author Tony Dierckins will be in the Twin Cities Saturday to sign copies of his latest book on the Glensheen mansion. "Glensheen: The Official Guide to Duluth's Congdon Estate" is a photographic guide to the storied Duluth estate.

Its launch comes at a critical time for the property. Glensheen is seeking millions of dollars from state lawmakers this year for repairs.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Dierckins.
