Anyone with a familiarity with Wisconsin’s German connections will especially enjoy Besch’s version of capturing the American Dream.Michael Besch PhD, is a former history professor and administrator at Concordia University. 140 pages with twenty black and white photos, maps and sketches.$21.00 includes shipping taxes and handling for one book. All profits go to the restoration and activation of the Saxonia House.
