Book Synopsis North Woods River by : Eileen M. McMahon
Download or read book North Woods River written by Eileen M. McMahon and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2009-10-20 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The St. Croix River, the free-flowing boundary between Wisconsin and Minnesota, is a federally protected National Scenic Riverway. The area’s first recorded human inhabitants were the Dakota Indians, whose lands were transformed by fur trade empires and the loggers who called it the “river of pine.” A patchwork of farms, cultivated by immigrants from many countries, followed the cutover forests. Today, the St. Croix River Valley is a tourist haven in the land of sky-blue waters and a peaceful escape for residents of the bustling Minneapolis–St. Paul metropolitan region. North Woods River is a thoughtful biography of the river over the course of more than three hundred years. Eileen McMahon and Theodore Karamanski track the river’s social and environmental transformation as newcomers changed the river basin and, in turn, were changed by it. The history of the St. Croix revealed here offers larger lessons about the future management of beautiful and fragile wild waters.

There are still Natives in our society today, and we're working together and living side by side. So we need to learn about their ways as well." --Amy Laundrie, former Lake Delton Elementary School fourth grade teacher An essential title for the upper elementary classroom, "Native People of Wisconsin" fills the need for accurate and authentic teaching materials about Wisconsin's Indian Nations.

Download or read book The Pleistocene History of the Lower Wisconsin River written by Paul Macclintock and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pleistocene History of the Lower Wisconsin River: A Dissertation The Wisconsin River, rising among the glacial lakes in the northern part of the state of Wisconsin, flows almost due south nearly to Portage, where it turns and flowing westward for a dis tance of about 80 miles joins the Mississippi just south of Prairie du Chien (fig. I). It is this lower, east-west part of the river valley which is discussed in this paper'. The terminal moraine of the Wisconsin glacial epoch crosses the valley just east of Prairie du Sac and marks not only the eastern boundary of the region here considered but also that of the driftless area. Since glacial drift is found in Iowa opposite the lower end of the valley, it may be said that the Wisconsin River traverses from east to west the entire driftless area. It is thus seen that drift remnants which are found in this part of the valley are of important significance in the history of ancient ice invasions in bordering regions. These remnants of glacial drift in the valley fall naturally into two divisions: First, there are terraces of Wisconsin age: (a) remnants of the valley train Sloping from the terminal moraine, where it crosses the valley near Prairie du Sac, to the Mississippi River, and (b) a lower terrace standing only I 5 feet above the pres ent river flood-plain; and second, standing well above the preced ing terrace, are rock benches covered with much older drift. These upper benches have a gentle slope toward the east (fig. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
