Book Description
Excerpt from The Wisconsin Lead Region The present volume is the third in the General series of the Wisconsin Domesday Book, the first being the author's Agriculture in Wisconsin, the second his Four Wisconsin Counties, Prairie and Forest. The publica tion, in atlas format, of the so-called Town Studies was experimental and has had no successor in the Domesday series. The lead region study differs from the Four Wis consin Counties in combining the history of an impor tant extractive industry, lead mining, with the history of the development of agriculture. Unlike the previous study, also, which did not deal with the industrial cities of the lake shore located within the boundaries of the counties surveyed, this book takes account of the lead ing towns, none of them large, which have served the several communities.
