Wisconsin Hometown Stories - Sauk Prairie
$ 16.95
Wisconsin Hometown Stories: Sauk Prairie tells the story of two villages formed by both the fertile land of South Central Wisconsin and the flowing waters of the Wisconsin River. The histories of Sauk City and Prairie du Sac have been shaped by the Native communities who first made their home on the land, the
harnessing of powerful water resources, local manufacturing built to meet the needs of a nation in peril, a shared love of the land, and the creative spirit of
its people.
Film, archival images, and interviews with historians, local citizens and experts illustrate rich stories of the Sauk Prairie region’s past and the resilience and
creativity of its residents across generations.
