Mehr zum Buch

The narrative traces the historical journey of Kaukauna, starting with Jean Nicolet's exploration in 1634 and the establishment of trade in 1760. It highlights the significance of the first recorded land deed in Wisconsin and the development of infrastructure, including the first state road and the construction of locks and dams. The city's growth was fueled by sawmills and paper mills, leading to its nickname, "Lion on the Fox." Today, Kaukauna thrives as a community with a small-town feel, anchored by its rich history and the enduring presence of the Fox River.
