'Badger Boneyards' Author Dennis McCann at the Fox Cities Book Festival


Author Dennis McCann will give a presentation about his book, Badger Boneyards: The Eternal Rest of the Story, as part of the fourth annual Fox Cities Book Festival. He will also be available to sign books at the event.

The bodies are buried, but the stories are not. From the ornate tombs of Milwaukee beer barons to displaced Chippewa graves and miniscule family plots, "Badger Boneyards: The Eternal Rest of the Story" unearths the stories of Wisconsin. Football great John Heisman is buried here, as is the state's smallest man, a woman whose tombstone names her murderer, and the boy who would not tell a lie and paid the price.
