Synopsis Badger by : Daniel Heath Justice
Fierce, menacing, and mysterious, badgers have fascinated humans as living animals, abstract symbols, or commercial resources for thousands of years—often to their detriment. With their reputation for determined self-defense, they have been brutalized by hunters and sportsmen, while their association with the mythic underworld has made them idealized symbols of earth-based wisdom and their burrowing habits have resulted in their widespread persecution as pests. In this highly illustrated book, Daniel Heath Justice provides the first global cultural history of the badger in over thirty years. From the iconic European badger and its North American kin to the African honey badger and Southeast Asian hog badger, Justice considers the badger’s evolution and widespread distribution alongside its current, often-imperiled status throughout the world. He travels from natural history and life in the wild to the folklore, legends, and spiritual beliefs that badgers continue to inspire, while also exploring their representation and exploitation in industry, religion, and the arts. Tracing the complex and contradictory ways in which this fascinating animal endures, Badger will appeal to anyone interested in a deeper understanding of these much-maligned creatures.

Synopsis They Came to Wisconsin by : Julia Pferdehirt
They Came to Wisconsin presents three themes of the state's immigrant history: leaving the homeland, making the journey, and enduring the first year of settlement. Journal and diary entries and letters from European groups and oral histories from African American, Latino, Hmong, and Amish sources make this book dynamic and wholly inclusive. They Came to Wisconsin breaks fresh ground in presenting document-centered Wisconsin history to a young audience. More important, these firsthand stories add a real human dimension to history, helping students to compare the experiences of the varied groups who came to Wisconsin in the last two hundred years.

Synopsis The Farm on Badger Creek by : Peggy Prilaman Marxen
"Peggy Marxen grew up in the somewhat isolated environment of northwestern Wisconsin's Sawyer County, yet was surrounded by close-knit extended family. In 1916, after a lengthy search conducted by train and bicycle, her grandparents settled a forty next to Badger Creek, in the hilly cutover land that remained after lumberjacks harvested thousands of acres of pines. They arrived just before the creation of the Township of Meteor in 1919. In the 1920s and 1930s her parents and an uncle and aunt built homes near her grandparents and began to raise their small families. Multiple generations of her family witnessed the changes to rural Wisconsin, which changed the fabric of their lives and the lives of all in their community: new farming techniques, education, transportation, and technology, among others. Peggy's traditional farm family supplemented their subsistence herd of dairy cows by hunting and fishing and selling timber and maple syrup. Her home, like those of the neighbors, for a time lacked indoor plumbing, electricity, and a telephone. Until statewide school consolidation (when Peggy was in 5th grade), she attended a one-room schoolhouse and walked, biked, or sledded the three miles to school and back, no matter the weather. Through her girlhood eyes, Peggy Marxen traces her family's story through the best and worst of times, examining the strength of Wisconsin's small communities. Her book is a fitting tribute to her settler ancestors and a way of life now gone-and a celebration of the hardy people of northwestern Wisconsin"--
