It allows the reader to discover all of the different types of silos there are from fieldstone, wood, brick, block, glazed tile and concrete. The author not only photographed each site, he also personally spoke with a majority of the landowners to learn more about their silo's distinct history. A must read for anyone interested in Wisconsin's dairy history and the beauty of Wisconsin's rural landscape.

This first-ever encyclopedia of the Midwest seeks to embrace this large and diverse area, to give it voice, and help define its distinctive character. Organized by topic, it encourages readers to reflect upon the region as a whole. Each section moves from the general to the specific, covering broad themes in longer introductory essays, filling in the details in the shorter entries that follow. There are portraits of each of the region's twelve states, followed by entries on society and culture, community and social life, economy and technology, and public life. The book offers a wealth of information about the region's surprising ethnic diversity -- a vast array of foods, languages, styles, religions, and customs -- plus well-informed essays on the region's history, culture and values, and conflicts. A site of ideas and innovations, reforms and revivals, and social and physical extremes, the Midwest emerges as a place of great complexity, signal importance, and continual fascination.

In His Majesty's Sacred Service

Genre: Philosophy
ISBN: 164462009X

In His Majesty's Sacred Service was written with the purpose of giving honor to Jesus Christ as my Lord and King. With that in mind, the book seeks to use scripture to illuminate the wonderful attributes of God, such as His perfect love, omniscience, omnipresence, and omnipotence. The book also uses scripture to explain the origins of God's name, how and why He magnified His Word, view the majestic tapestry of His relationships with His people, and the land He promised to them, on a journey through time from Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, to Abraham's faithful sacrifice at Mount Moriah, to Solomon's temple at that same Mount Moriah, to the cross of Christ at Jerusalem. The design of the wilderness Tabernacle as described in the book of Exodus is also visited. There we can find the many pictures of Jesus as our Savior, as well as a pattern for our ultimate salvation, deftly concealed in all of the materials, colors, dimensions, and furniture and implements used; and the relationships of all of these things to the four gospels in the New Testament. The book ends with an appreciation of the ultimate beauty of the city that Jesus will build. The city of the King called New Jerusalem, with its pearl gates, gem-stone foundations, streets of pure gold, and absolutely no death, sorrow, crying, or pain.
