Wisconsin Women In The War Between The States Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Wisconsin in the World War When, in the early thirties, the brave spirits who settled Wisconsin made their way through forests and over fresh prairies to the territory which became the great Middle West, they could not foresee its future. The call of the open places, the desire for the freedom and the opportunity of the new country, sent them here. Like Crusaders they came, braving all dangers, enduring all hardships. They settled, here and there, the domain which is now the center of the northwest group of states, Illinois, Indiana. Ohio, Michigan and Wisconsin. Where rivers joined, upon the banks of lakes, in the fertile valleys already abloom with vegetation they paused, in small groups, to build their stock ades, and set about the task of conquering a wilderness.
