"In this revised edition of an award-winning work, Jerry Apps provides an informative and moving account of Wisconsin's most hard-working structures - its barns. Symbols of optimism, pride and practicality, barns are as diverse as the people who built them. Here Apps describes the exquisite craftsmanship with which the Finns, Norwegians, Germans and other immigrant groups built their pioneer barns. We learn too, how round and octagonal barns developed, why cupolas and lightning rods were used, and how some of Wisconsin's barns became covered with colorful murals and billboards" ILLUSTRATED in black and white pencil sketches and watercolors of Wisconsin barns (most full page) with accompanying descriptive captions. 151 pages.
