Summer 2010
The Summer 2010 issue of the "Wisconsin Magazine of History" features articles on Madison's Sidell Sisters, who dazzled the world with their graceful dances perfected at The Kehl School of Dancing from 1922–1942; the environmental impact of Whitewater's efforts to battle Dutch Elm Disease from the 1950s–1970s using DDT; the Kraft family's Langlade County estate that became the once-popular tourist attraction known as Kraftwood Gardens; and exquisite beadwork created by Wisconsin Ojibwe artists that graces bandolier bags exhibited at the Madeline Island Museum.
