Follow William Maynard Lockwood and his wife, Eunice, as they take us on a visually stimulating trip around Green Lake, Wisconsin in the 1870s. The well-to-do from Chicago, St. Louis and New Orleans spent their summers at Green Lake to take in the healthful climate and lifestyle. The Lockwoods' beautiful stereoscopic images of resorts and resorters show how different life was 150 years ago. These images come from a private collection and most have never been published or seen before. The title of the book comes from a series of stereographic cards that the Lockwoods sold to the early tourists of the area entitled "Green Lake Scenery."
