Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Pictorial History of Williams Bay, Wisconsin On Beautiful Geneva Lake is an account of the settlement and development of the Village of Williams Bay from 1836 until 1939. The Village had a diverse and colorful history beginning with Chief Big Foot and the Potawatomi who made the bay a favored hunting camp and burial ground and its settlement by Captain Israel Williams, who left a comfortable and prosperous life in Massachusetts, bringing his family to the Northwest Territory for new opportunities. Later rugged pioneers, Norwegian immigrants, wealthy industrialists and progressive socialites would call the Village home. The arrival of the Chicago & North Western Railway in 1888 opened the Village to endless opportunities. Maintaining its quaint rural atmosphere, Williams Bay became the setting for camps, resorts, and the world-renowned Yerkes Observatory. Prominent astronomers from around the world viewed the universe with the Observatory's 40-inch refracting telescope. Incorporated in 1919 at the urging of leading Village residents who saw the potential the community had to offer.

Download or read book Models of Time and Space from Astrophysics and World Cultures written by Bryan E. Penprase and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-24 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Models of Time and Space from Astrophysics and World Cultures explores how our conceptions of time, space, and the physical universe have evolved across cultures throughout the centuries. Developed with a humanistic approach, this book blends historical sources, biographical profiles of exceptional scientists, and the latest discoveries in both astrophysics and particle physics. This rich read describes the incredible insights and ultimate limits of our knowledge, the physical universe, and how ideas old and new have converged, across the world, to build our current understanding of reality. From the Large Hadron Collider to the James Webb Space Telescope, we have mapped the universe from the smallest to largest scales; allowing us to gain fundamental knowledge that has transformed our understanding of the universe. The chapters herein will teach you about dark matter and dark energy, gravitational waves and other complex parts of the cosmos. Along the way, you will learn a thing or two about quantum mechanics, parallel universes, and the ultimate boundaries of the observable universe. This book cultivates insight from a variety of cultural traditions, including perspectives from both modern and ancient cultures, in order to show how our modern conceptions of space and time have arisen from the ongoing explorations within ancient world civilizations. It is a valuable, intriguing and insightful volume for those interested in the fields of historical astronomy and cultural astronomy, as well as for anyone interested in learning about the latest finds from the field of physics and astrophysics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Every Root an Anchor, writer and arborist R. Bruce Allison celebrates Wisconsin's most significant, unusual, and historic trees. More than one hundred tales introduce us to trees across the state, some remarkable for their size or age, others for their intriguing histories. From magnificent elms to beloved pines to Frank Lloyd Wright's oaks, these trees are woven into our history, contributing to our sense of place. They are anchors for time-honored customs, manifestations of our ideals, and reminders of our lives' most significant events. For this updated edition, Allison revisits the trees' histories and tells us which of these unique landmarks are still standing. He sets forth an environmental message as well, reminding us to recognize our connectedness to trees and to manage our tree resources wisely. As early Wisconsin conservationist Increase Lapham said, "Tree histories increase our love of home and improve our hearts. They deserve to be told and remembered."
