About this product
Product Information
From the first Cheese Day in 1874 to the Great Limburger War of 1935, author Duane H. Freitag peers into the nooks and crannies of the tumultuous political history of Green County, Wisconsin. In this previously untold story, Freitag pulls back the curtain to uncover how the Swiss immigrants who settled in southern Wisconsin influenced Green County politics from 1845 to 1945. Buffeted by wars, dairy industry economics, murders, epidemics, the temperance movement, and LaFollette progressivism, this immigrant group was heavily involved in each major election, asserting their political will in candidates and through the polls. In addition to exploring the politics of the region, Freitag also discusses what caused shifts in Wisconsin's political winds throughout this period by placing Green County elections against the larger context of political landscape of the United States as a whole. In doing so, he examines the history of America and demonstrates how Swiss immigrants and other Wisconsin cultural groups responded to the events that shaped the nation. From the abolition of slavery to prohibition, the Great Depression, and concerns about America's involvement in two world wars, Sauerkraut, Suspenders, and the Swiss demonstrates the remarkable story of Wisconsin and American politics.

The condition of the collection of 3 books that I purchased from seller was better than described. All 3 books were described as "very good," I would say 2 of the books were closer to "like new" and the other book was definitely, "very good (per the seller's description)." Books were extremely well packaged in a cardboard box with good padding (unlike many sellers who put your book in a plastic sleeve and think that is adequate to protect your book). Fast shipment. Great book seller!
