Records of a ten-day festival held to commemorate the 350th anniversary of French explorer Jean Nicolet's arrival in Red Banks, near Green Bay, Wisconsin, and to promote the city of Green Bay, its early history, and Wisconsin's diverse ethnic heritage. The records document the planning and organization of the festival and consist of the files of the executive, marketing, public information, photography, and publicity committees. The files include minutes, financial statements, notes, press releases, newsletters, schedules of events, and correspondence. Color slides depict major festival events including a parade, folk festival, Oneida Indian pow-wow, craft fair, re-enactment of Nicolet's landing, Astor neighborhood walking tour, and Civil War re-enactment.

In 1876, Congress issued a joint resolution recommending the preparation of local histories of every town and county for preservation in the Library of Congress. The W. H. Beers & Co. publishing house was a prolific producer of such histories. This volume contains Part III and Part IV of the original five part work. Part III, History of Brown County offers accounts of physical features and pre-historic remains, adventures and conflicts with the Indians, pioneer history, civil organizations, general progress of the county, churches, military history, sketches of distinguished citizens, a list of officers, and much more. Part IV, Township Histories covers the following townships: Pleasant, Union, Lewis, Perry, Huntington, Clark, Franklin, Pike, Eagle, Jefferson, Scott, Green, Jackson, Washington, Sterling, and Byrd. A map of Brown County and a surname index add to the value of this work. From the original 1883 publication, which ran over 1,000 pages, Heritage Books, Inc. has also reprinted Part V, a collection of nearly 1,000 biographical sketches of prominent men in each of the Brown County townships; Parts I and II of the original book, which contain stock histories of the Northwest Territory and the state of Ohio, have not been reprinted.

In 1876, Congress issued a joint resolution recommending the preparation of local histories of every town and county for preservation in the Library of Congress. The W. H. Beers & Co. publishing house was a prolific producer of such histories. From the original 1883 publication, which ran over 1,000 pages, Heritage Books, Inc. has already reprinted sections dealing with the specific histories of Brown County and each of its townships. This book presents Part V from the original volume, a collection of nearly 1,000 biographical sketches of prominent men in each of the Brown County townships. Many of the subjects were still alive at the time of the original publication, so the majority of the biographies focus on the mid- to late-1800s. The sketches vary in the amount of information given, but generally they include the names of the subject s parents with relevant information about family heritage and immigration to the United States, the names of his wife, their children, and his wife s parents. The subject s professional or occupational history is usually recounted as well as his educational attainments, and his social, religious, and political activities. A surname index has been added, in which such names as the following appear: Baird, Brown, Campbell, Cochran, Davis, Day, Devore, Dunn, Ellis, Evans, Jones, Marshall, Martin, Miller, Moore, Smith, Thompson, White, Wilson, and Young.

"... highly recommended... " --Choice This handsomely illustrated catalog presents the work of four African American artists with shared Indiana roots--John Wesley Hardrick, William Majors, William Edouard Scott, and Hale Aspacio Woodruff. Their art, ranging from impressionism and social realism to cubism and abstract expressionism, spans the major trends in 20th-century American art, while reflecting the artists' experiences as blacks in America.
