Meet the mayors, ministers, mystics, murderers, and more whose lives influenced and defined the state. Co-authors Michael Edmonds and Samantha Snyder plumbed the Wisconsin Historical Society's collections to research and compose portraits of 80 notable individuals. Among them are a governor who saw ghosts, a horse thief, a husband and wife who each stood over 7 feet tall, an American Indian chief who defied forced removal, and the first woman to practice law before the Supreme Court.
