Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sheboygan County's iron-fisted work ethic began with its earliest residents. From the jackknife trading posts and mill wrights of the early 1800s to the spas and "Great Wall of China" of Kohler Company, the importance of commerce to Sheboygan County is evident. This wonderful pictorial history of the small family-owned businesses of Sheboygan County begins in the 1870s and ends with a great shot of a 1950s American Classic--McDonald's Golden Arches. It provides an intimate look at tin shops and cheese factories, butchers and blacksmiths, movie theaters and much more. Sheboygan County: Pioneers of Commerce presents a cross section of American life as the country grew from a rural entity to a business giant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sheboygan, Wisconsin is a city defined by water. Situated on the western shore of Lake Michigan at the point where the Sheboygan River empties into the lake, life in the city has always revolved around water. Immigration brought new Wisconsinites via the Great Lakes. Product from Sheboygan's booming furniture industry left the city via the river and then Lake Michigan for markets elsewhere. Coal and salt moved around the world from C. Reiss Coal Company for decades via Lake Michigan. Today, the water is the center of the region's recreation and tourism industry. This brief history touches on the many facets of Sheboygan, its river and its lake.

Book excerpt: Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin, originally platted as the village of "Rochester," took shape in the late 1830s and 1840s. Settled by Yankee businessmen from the East, "Sheboygan at the Falls" was strong from the beginning, surviving even the national financial panic of 1837. As the village grew up along the Sheboygan River, this reliable source of water ensured rapid growth of industry and population and the accompanying prosperity. A city of Greek Revival and Cream City brick architecture, Sheboygan Falls boasts two districts listed on the National Historic Register. The Cole Historic District is the largest Greek Revival District west of the East Coast. Its five buildings were built between 1837 and 1846. The largely original downtown business district of the city includes buildings that once housed a tannery, a cheese bandage factory, a rake factory, a woolen mill, a Temperance Hall for teetotalers, and a Free Hall for women.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ideally situated on the western shore of Lake Michigan, Sheboygan was once known as the "City of Chairs, Churches, Cheese, and Children" for its abundance of each. Over time, the city's claim to fame has changed. It is now celebrated for bratwurst and hard rolls, great surfing on Lake Michigan, speedy cycling on its city streets, unparalleled sportfishing, and miles of sandy beaches and beautiful dunes in family-friendly parks. A fanciful tale often told to explain the meaning of the name Sheboygan involves an Indian chief who had many sons but no daughters; when his wife presented him with yet another boy, she was rumored to have lamented, "She a boy again." In reality, most authorities agree that Sheboygan is a Chippewa word, but the meaning remains elusive. Some say it refers to a passageway near water, while others say it documents a great river disappearing underground.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A few years ago, I went back to my home town to attend my 60-year high school class reunion. The day after the festivities, I took my camera in hand, got in my car, and spent most of the day on a sentimental journey. I drove around the town, remembering what it had been like when I was a boy growing up there many, many years ago. The stories in this book will tell you about the schools and churches I attended, the places where members of my family worked, and places where my friends and I played. You will enjoy the sounds, the smels and the social events of a vibrant community. You will visit the playgrounds and parks and go to picnics and parades. You will go swimming, skating and sliding, and hear about how we kids had fun back then. You will learn about chairs and cheese and other things that were important to the life of our town. My first Sheboygan book was about the people who were an important part of my like when I was a boy; this book is about how those people lived, worked and played. It was a different world back then...one we sometimes wish we could live over again. Welcome back to Sheboygan!
