Excerpt: ...have claimed and still claim much of his time and attention; for three years he was alderman from the Second ward of Fort Howard, and he is now serving his third term as mayor of the city. Mrs. Sarah Larsen was born in Suamico, Brown Co., Wis., and is a daughter of Ferdinand and Sarah Krouse, who hada family of five children. To her marriage have been born ten children, of whom one died when but a year old; the names of the others are Mabel, Austin, Leslie, Edith, Grace, Charles Sumner, Marie, Milton, and.'arren. The eldest of these is proficient in music, and is still taking lessons at the Auditorium in Chicago, while several of the others are being educated at the best colleges of Wisconsin. Mr. Larsen and his wife at first lived in a rented house, for which they paid $8 or $10 per month, and continued to reside there until about 1888, when he completed his present magnificent home at a cost of nearly fifteen thousand dollars. It is the most modern, handsome and complete house in this section of the country, and the furniture and grounds are in appropriate harmony with the residence. His business is now one of the most extensive commercial enterprises of the entire State, and Green Bay, as well as Fort Howard, is especially benefited through its dealings in country produce. He is endowed, in a remarkable degree, with the characteristics possessed by his hardy, brave and adventurous ancestors--traits of character which enabled them to secure a more than prominent place in the history of the world. These "Norsemen " were old-time heroes, whose indomitable spirit made them the most adventurous navigators of their time, and who undoubtedly viewed the shores of the New World at a period long antedating its " discovery ..".

Download or read book A Biography of Mrs Marty Mann written by Sally Brown and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-06-02 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marty Mann was the first woman to achieve long-term sobriety in Alcoholics Anonymous, and she inspired thousands of others, especially women, to help themselves. The little-known life of Marty Mann rivals a Masterpiece Theatre drama. She was born into a life of wealth and privilege, sank to the lowest depths of poverty and despair, then rose to inspire thousands of others, especially women, to help themselves. The first woman to achieve long-term sobriety in Alcoholics Anonymous, Marty Mann advocated the understanding that alcoholism is an issue of public health, not morality. In their fascinating book, Sally and David Brown shed light on this influential figure in recovery history. Born in Chicago in 1905, Marty was favored with beauty, brains, charisma, phenomenal energy, and a powerful will. She could also out drink anyone in her group of social elites. When her father became penniless, she was forced into work, landed a lucrative public relations position, and a decade later was destitute because of her drinking. She was committed to a psychiatric center in 1938-a time when the term alcoholism was virtually unknown, the only known treatment was "drying out," and two men were compiling the book Alcoholics Anonymous. Marty read it on the recommendation of psychiatrist Dr. Harry Tiebout: it was her first step toward sobriety and a long, illustrious career as founder of the National Council on Alcoholism, or NCA.In the early 1950s, journalist Edward R. Murrow selected Marty as one of the 10 greatest living Americans. Marty died of a stroke in 1980, shortly after addressing the AA international convention in New Orleans.This is a story of one woman's indefatigable effort and indomitable spirit, compellingly told by Sally and David Brown.

Download or read book History Afield written by Robert C Willging and published by Wisconsin Historical Society. This book was released on 2012-08-22 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories of sportsmen past come to life in History Afield, an account of the many and varied sporting pursuits that are part of the Wisconsin tradition. Author and outdoorsman Robert Willging shares more than two dozen tales of Wisconsin sporting history, highlighting the hunt for waterfowl, upland birds, and deer; trout fishing in wild north Wisconsin rivers; and recreating at early Wisconsin lakeside resorts. Anecdotes of fishing exploits on our plentiful waterways and presidential visits to northern Wisconsin reveal a unique slice of sporting culture, and chapters on live decoys and the American Water Spaniel demonstrate the human-animal bond that has played such a large part in that history. Tales of nature’s fury include a detailed account of the famous Armistice Day storm, as well as the dangers of ice fishing on Lake Superior. These historical musings and perspectives on sporting ethos provide a strong sense of the lifestyle that Willging has preserved for our new century. Featuring first-hand interviews and a variety of historic photos depicting the Wisconsin sporting life, History Afield shows how the intimate relationship between humans and nature shaped this important part of the state’s heritage.
