Unmasked is the story of what happened in Okoboji, a small Iowan tourist town, when a collective turn from the coronavirus to the economy occurred in the COVID summer of 2020. State political failures, local negotiations among political and public health leaders, and community (dis)belief about the virus resulted in Okoboji being declared a hotspot just before the Independence Day weekend, when an influx of half a million people visit the town. The story is both personal and political. Author Emily Mendenhall, an anthropologist at Georgetown University, grew up in Okoboji, and her family still lives there. As the events unfolded, Mendenhall was in Okoboji, where she spoke formally with over 100 people and observed a community that rejected public health guidance, revealing deep-seated mistrust in outsiders and strong commitments to local thinking. Unmasked is a fascinating and heartbreaking account of where people put their trust, and how isolationist popular beliefs can be in America's small communities. This book is the recipient of the 2022 Norman L. and Roselea J. Goldberg Prize from Vanderbilt University Press for the best book in the area of art or medicine.
John Mendenhall (1659-1743), a Quaker, emigrated from England to Concord, Chester County, Pennsylvania in 1682 and married twice. Decendants and relatives lived throughout the United States. Mildenhall was another spelling of the early English families and some descendants.

A man of strong evangelical faith, Edwin Mendenhall surrendered to a religious calling and enthusiastically told his bishop, I am your missionary to Wayne County! In 1844, he uprooted his family and embarked on a journey to the remote northeastern corner of Pennsylvania, an area he believed was a spiritual fi eld ready for harvest. Almost forgotten, Mendenhalls story is about a mans singular mission to share a timeless message of hope. For that cause, he would devote his life, saying, How thankful I feel that I have preached full and free salvation . . . in Christ Jesus.
