Book excerpt: "The present volume is the third in the general series of the Wisconsin Counties, Prairies and Forest. The publication, in atlas format, of the so-called Town Studies was experimental and has had no successor in the Domesday series. The lead region study differs from the Four Wisconsin Counties in combining the history of an important extractive industry, lead mining, with the history of the development of agriculture. Unlike the previous study, also, which did not deal with the industrial cities of the lake shore located within the boundaries of the counties surveyed, this book takes account of the leading towns, non of them large, which have served the several communities. Special attention is directed to the article which appears as Appendix IV, prepared by professor Vernor C. Finch of the geography department, university of Wisconsin. Professor Finch, desiring to work out such a careful detail study of a typical farming district, devoted a large part of his summer vacation in 1928, with an assistant, to the Montfort area. His results are decidedly interesting and throw much light on the utilization of the land in the two contrasted types of terrain about which so much is said in the book proper-the rough lands of the north slope, and the prairies. Appendix II, "origin of the Wisconsin lead and zinc deposits," the work of a you Wisconsin and Harvard University geologist, Paul A. Schager, supplements and checks, in a thoroughgoing scientific survey of the region, what is written for laymen by a layman mainly in chapters II and VIII. The illustrations, it is believed, will constitute a welcome new feature of the Domesday publications. The index has been prepared by the assistant editor, Lilian Krueger. The publication was paid for out of the income from the Burrows Fund devoted to the Domesday Studies by action of the executive committee of the society."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rediscover Wisconsin history from the very beginning. A Short History of Wisconsin recounts the landscapes, people, and traditions that have made the state the multifaceted place it is today. With an approach both comprehensive and accessible, historian Erika Janik covers several centuries of Wisconsin's remarkable past, showing how the state was shaped by the same world wars, waves of new inhabitants, and upheavals in society and politics that shaped the nation. Swift, authoritative, and compulsively readable, A Short History of Wisconsin commences with the glaciers that hewed the region's breathtaking terrain, the Native American cultures who first called it home, and French explorers and traders who mapped what was once called "Mescousing." Janik moves through the Civil War and two world wars, covers advances in the rights of women, workers, African Americans, and Indians, and recent shifts involving the environmental movement and the conservative revolution of the late 20th century. Wisconsin has hosted industries from fur-trapping to mining to dairying, and its political landscape sprouted figures both renowned and reviled, from Fighting Bob La Follette to Joseph McCarthy. Janik finds the story of a state not only in the broad strokes of immigration and politics, but also in the daily lives shaped by work, leisure, sports, and culture. A Short History of Wisconsin offers a fresh understanding of how Wisconsin came into being and how Wisconsinites past and present share a deep connection to the land itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wisconsin Lead Region: Frontier Community The difficulty was more easily talked about than solved. Leading the miners was Henry Dodge, who had come over from Missouri and had led a militia company against the Winnebago. He had made strikes near Dodgeville late in November, 1827, and by January had taken out more than worth of lead. With two Negroes he was raising about pounds a day. Not only did he have a sound investment pay ing off, but Henry Dodge was a hard man to move anyway. Dodge had made a bargain with the Bear, a Winnebago chief, and then sold parts of his purchase to incoming miners. As news of the de posits spread, hundreds fiocked into the area. Some bought from Dodge. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Settlers' Empire written by Bethel Saler and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1783 Treaty of Paris, which officially recognized the United States as a sovereign republic, also doubled the territorial girth of the original thirteen colonies. The fledgling nation now stretched from the coast of Maine to the Mississippi River and up to the Great Lakes. With this dramatic expansion, argues author Bethel Saler, the United States simultaneously became a postcolonial republic and gained a domestic empire. The competing demands of governing an empire and a republic inevitably collided in the early American West. The Settlers' Empire traces the first federal endeavor to build states wholesale out of the Northwest Territory, a process that relied on overlapping colonial rule over Euro-American settlers and the multiple Indian nations in the territory. These entwined administrations involved both formal institution building and the articulation of dominant cultural customs that, in turn, served also to establish boundaries of citizenship and racial difference. In the Northwest Territory, diverse populations of newcomers and Natives struggled over the region's geographical and cultural definition in areas such as religion, marriage, family, gender roles, and economy. The success or failure of state formation in the territory thus ultimately depended on what took place not only in the halls of government but also on the ground and in the everyday lives of the region's Indians, Francophone creoles, Euro- and African Americans, and European immigrants. In this way, The Settlers' Empire speaks to historians of women, gender, and culture, as well as to those interested in the early national state, the early West, settler colonialism, and Native history.
