Badger Boneyards: The Eternal Rest of the Story


The bodies are buried, but the stories are not.  From the ornate tombs of Milwaukee beer barons to displaced Chippewa graves and miniscule family plots, Badger Boneyards: The Eternal Rest of the Story unearths the stories of Wisconsin.  Football great John Heisman is buried here, as is the state's smallest man, a woman whose tombstone names her murderer, and the boy who would not tell a lie and paid the price.

Author, Dennis McCann will be at the Waterford Library on Tuesday, November 15 at 6:30 p.m. to share some of what he has discovered in his research for this book. Books will be available for purchase and signing.  There is no charge for this presentation, but registration is required.
