Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Annals of Whitewater: 1837-1867 I have also been led to make these communications that those who have come among us at a later day may know what has been done by those noblemen who first pitched their tents in this then wilderness, and that the minds of some who seem disposed to think those early settlers cared little for the graces and arts of civilization - that they, the founders and builders, took no heed for the superstructure that it should be at once strong and beautiful and pleasant to the sight - may be disabused of their erroneous impressions, and may know them for what they were, a band of energetic, noble, strong-hearted men and women, ever ready to work for public as well as private good. No one but he who has from the first kept pace with the steady march of progress and improvement, can fully realize what or how much has been done, or how great is the contrast between Whitewater as it was and is - between the Whitewater of eighteen hundred and thirty-six and the Whitewater of to-day. The Region in 1836 - Then, in all the wide circuit of country which now comprises the thickly settled towns of Whitewater, Lima, Richmond, LaGrange, Palmyra, Hebron, and Cold Spring, not a solitary white inhabitant could be found; the red man, the true "Native American," then reigned sole possessor of the land. The forests, swept clear of the rubbish of the year by the annual fires kindled in the red man's path, were as destitute of any undergrowth of shrubs as the most carefully kept park, and presented to the eye of the beholder an unobstructed and extended range of vision, ever opening to his view delights and fresh beauties. No sound of the axe had then invaded these solitudes, no plough had turned the virgin soil, but delicately tinted flowers bloomed where now are seen smiling fields of nodding grain or rustling corn.

Download or read book Early Whitewater Industry written by Bo McCready and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2008-10-20 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the arrival of the Milwaukee and Mississippi Railroad in 1852, Whitewater became a regional shipping center that blossomed into a powerful industrial town. The Esterly Harvesting Machine Company and the Winchester and Partridge Wagon Works established their first factories in Whitewater after the coming of the Milwaukee and Mississippi. Their manufactured goods were known around the country for exceptional quality. A myriad of new inventions and patents came from Whitewaters business population, and Whitewaters farmers and dairymen consistently won prizes for their produce, while its factories produced reapers and wagons that won national competitions. In the 1890s, however, development suddenly stopped and Whitewater lost its economic clout in a few short years. This book explains what happened to Whitewater.
Download or read book Whitewater written by Fred G. Kraege and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The city of Whitewater was named for the soft, white clay that lined the stream flowing through the area. Later it claimed the motto "the Banner Inland City of the Midwest" and, after that, "Whitewater, the City Beautiful" for its stately homes and large, graceful trees. Samuel Prince, the first settler, erected a cabin on his claim of 60 acres in 1837; a gristmill, sawmill, paper mill, and numerous stores were soon established in this rich agricultural area. The railroad came, and the manufacturing of the Esterly Grain Harvester and the Whitewater Wagon made Whitewater an industrial town. In 1868, the state's second normal school -- later the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater -- located here, further changing the town's character.

Along the way he introduces you to the physical forces that have shaped the area from southeastern Wisconsin to northern Indiana and Berrien County in Michigan; the various habitat types present in the region and how European settlement has affected them; and the insects, reptiles, amphibians, birds, fish, and mammals found in presettlement times, then amid the settlers and now amid the skyscrappers. In all, Greenberg chronicles the development of nineteen counties in Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin across centuries of ecological, technological, and social transformations."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book From Watergate to Whitewater written by Marion T. Doss and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1997-09-23 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two decades since the Watergate scandal have seen an unprecedented focus on ethics in government. The public integrity scandals of the Clinton administration have, once again, focused national attention on ethics in Washington. This work addresses this very topical subject and the authors come to some unusual conclusions. Tracing the origins of the modern public integrity war back to the very birth of the nation, the authors explain how conservatives and progressives have used allegations of unethical conduct in an effort to persuade the American public to accept their respective visions for American society. A cynical public, anesthetized to the distinction between actual wrongdoing and partisan attack, follows ideology and self-interest rather than character, allowing politicians to get away with even the most egregious conduct.
