Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second volume in the History of Wisconsin series introduces us to the first generation of statehood, from the conversion of prairie and forests into farmland to the development of cities and industry. In addition, this volume presents a synthesis of the Civil War and Reconstruction era in Wisconsin. Scarcely a decade after entering the Union, the state was plunged into the nationwide debate over slavery, the secession crisis, and a war in which 11,000 "Badger Boys in Blue" gave their lives. Wisconsin's role in the Civil War is chronicled, along with the post-war years. Complete with photographs from the Historical Society's collections, as well as many pertinent maps, this book is a must-have for anyone interested in this era of Wisconsin's history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Port of Milwaukee: Historical, Descriptive, Prospective It meant that Milwaukee realized ten years ago that, with the growing changes in the character of the lake commerce, the crowding of water terminals from the river banks of large commercial centers, and the in creasing cost of handling large craft through tortu ous inner harbors, some study of future port develop ment would prove timely. The local harbor improvements, which had hitherto been in the hands of an aldermanic committee, were entrusted in a commission made up of citizens familiar with lake commerce and with the physical conditions of the local harbor. It was realized that an aldermanic committee, at best, is transient in character, and that a body of men in sympathetic touch with local port. Affairs, enjoying a long tenure of office, was best suited to provide a comprehensive plan involving years of study and a continuous policy of development.
