{"product_id":"germans-in-milwaukee-a-neighborhood-history-9781540247032","title":"Germans in Milwaukee: A Neighborhood History","description":"Germans dominated Milwaukee like no other large American city. Their presence inhabits the city's neighborhoods, from its buildings and place names to its parklands and statuary. Their influence also lives in the memories shared by local residents. A small Milwaukee neighborhood south of Miller Valley was christened after a farmer's pigs, and a busboy turned beer baron built the famous Pabst Brewery in West Town. A ghost is said to haunt the old Blatz Brewing compound. And the remains of the early tanning industry can still be seen in Walker's Point. Compiling more than 1,200 interviews, authors Jill Florence Lackey and Richard Petrie share these ground-level perspectives of the lasting German influence on the Cream City.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History PR\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/26\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540247032\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Jill Florence Lackey, Rick Petrie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39992442355893,"sku":"9781540247032","price":34.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_3b5285f3-11d9-472c-8555-1a384e522ac5.jpg?v=1620709083","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/germans-in-milwaukee-a-neighborhood-history-9781540247032","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
