Editorial Reviews
Review
"Michael Feldman's incisive look at Badger State oddities finally allows Wisconsin to merge from the long shadow of beer, cheese, sausage, and more beer. The reader will have to decide whether this is a good thing."

Book Description
With Wisconsin Curiosities, popular public radio show host Michael Feldman brings his "deliciously sarcastic" perspective to the subject of his home state. Together with co-author Diana Cook, he's combed Wisconsin for more than 125 of the weirdest, wackiest, most outrageous people, places, and things the Badger State has to offer.
You'll meet a man who owes his life to a foam rubber cheesehead, a worm that plays basketball, and a family of champion stiltwalkers. You'll discover the best places to savor chicken in a hubcap, whitefish livers, and that notoriously odorous limburger cheese. You'll visit far away places such as the Taj Mahal, Mount Rushmore, Chartres Cathedral, and even Stonehenge - and you'll be home in time for dinner!
