Wondeful Read

Growng up in Kohler during the 1960's and 70's, we were continually aware of the influence and history of the Kohler family: the three Kohler sisters who devoted their lives to the beauty of the village and good works, the development the Waelderhaus, the annual village traditions and the like. This book tells it all. When we visit the village and surrounding area now, we find so much of what is worthwhile is due to the benevolence of this one family: the nearby arts center, the golf courses, the state park. This book is a good read for those who lived there. It was proof positive to my husband of the many legends and tales I've been telling him for thirty years. If you look up the history of Kohler, this seemingly out of print book is available there for under $70.
