À propos de ce livre

A few men and women, mostly from German-speaking cantons, pioneered this remarkable Swiss community in the mid-1830s. Thousands who followed in their footsteps participated actively in the development of a vibrant new city, branding it with a unique style of efficiency and progressivism. The immigrants and their progeny prospered and distinguished themselves in various fields of science, commerce, art, and industry. They helped launch Charlie Chaplin�s career, produced coumarin used in flavorings and perfumes, wrote a popular guide for 19th-century immigrants, and helped shape the nation�s banking industry. Among their finest were Milwaukee�s first archbishop, a world-renowned surgeon, an elected governor, an influential radical �free-thinker,� a kindergarten pioneer, a wine grower, a successful whiskey distiller, and a prolific architect.
