4.0 out of 5 stars Door County in Pictures, February 26, 2000

This review is from: Door County, WI (Paperback)

Images of America, Door County is an excellent book. Via pictures this book presents the history of Door County from the middle 1800's until about 1950. The pictures are from all of the cities of Door County.

Some of the pictures include the names of the people shown in the picture. All pictures include the story behind the picture. In some cases the story is lengthly and full of lots of anecdotes. For instance, Door County had a toll bridge from 1887 to 1931. The Leonhardt Music Hall was opened as an opera house in 1900.

The pictures are from many sources, mostly private people so there are pictures that would not normally be available. This adds a special flavor to the book.

If your ancestors came to Door County and you are wandering what their life was like, this is the book to find the answers. By way of the write up given with each picture you will be able to learn a great deal about the people and the place.
