Book Description
Looking from the decks of schooners toward the western shore of Lake Michigan, early explorers quickly saw the potential of the prairie wilderness that was to become Kenosha. The vintage postcards in this book show a community that has evolved through rapid growth due to immigration, employment opportunities, and eras of educational leadership, patriotism, and a phoenixlike revival following devastating economic depression. From its beginning, the people of the area have demonstrated a strong work ethic, religious and civic spirit, and the ability to triumph over adversity.

Book Description
Kenosha is a suburb of both Chicago and Milwaukee, and it draws visitors from both metro areas and from all over the United States. A historic downtown, frequent community events, and a fierce dedication to the arts have catapulted the city into tourism stardom. Although big businesses have steadily come and gone, the residential population remains strong. From family-owned stores that have been downtown for nearly 100 years, to a vintage streetcar system still in use, to a new minor-league baseball team, residents put their entire hearts into maintaining the city's culture and pride.
