Wisconsin is a treasure trove of historic houses, from the spectacular 42-room Queen Anne-style Fairlawn Mansion in Superior, to the gracious French Renaissance Revival Anderson Art Center on Kenosha's Lake Michigan shore.
Here, author Krista Finstad Hanson presents 142 of Wisconsin's noted historical buildings, offering histories, descriptions, and travel information for each, and color photographs of many.
Some of these buildings are serving as art museums, others as living history museums, but all are interesting to visit; all have a vivid story to tell. Visiting these houses is like living the very history of Wisconsin. This book will be of interest and value to lovers of history, art, architecture, and interior furnishings, and to all who travel Wisconsin's roads in search of adventure and delight. 214 pages.
