Summary

If you want to discover the captivating history of Wisconsin, then pay attention....

The history of Wisconsin is so much more than just exhibits in museums. The 30th state has a long, rich story behind its modern-day façade. Thousands of years ago, ancient peoples hunted giant beasts on the frozen glaciers that have now given way to rivers and lakes. Rich cultures populated the frigid early forests of Wisconsin, eventually giving way to the arrival of French explorers. Soon, the British took over, ushering in an era of booming colonization, and Wisconsin saw its first recorded war. With the American Revolution, Wisconsin became free, and that brought a whole new set of challenges for its people to face.

Wisconsin’s history is as richly detailed and relentlessly interesting as its glorious landscapes. Its history has always paralleled that of the United States, giving a fascinating, deeper glimpse into a story we all know so well. Wisconsin saw the effects of colonialism, stood up for the rights of all people during the Civil War, and endured the wrath of fire. And in this audiobook, you'll discover its story.

In History of Wisconsin: A Captivating Guide to the History of the Badger State, Starting from the Arrival of Jean Nicolet Through the Fox Wars, War of 1812, and Gilded Age to the Present, you will discover topics such as

  • Wild Wisconsin
  • French colonization
  • British colonization
  • Wisconsin as a United States territory
  • Wisconsin as a state
  • Wisconsin burns

And much, much more!

THE BADGER STATE

I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook as it was easy to follow and not overly complicated with facts and dates. It provided me with a comprehensive account of the birth and growth of the State of Wisconsin. Any previous knowledge I had was based on election results and news articles such as the bombing of Wisconsin University.
