Buried Indians: Digging Up the Past in a Midwestern Town (Wisconsin Land and Life)

Review

“A very interesting and well-written book about what happens in a small river community when its sense of identity is challenged by its ancient Indian past.”—Robert Birmingham, coauthor of Indian Mounds of Wisconsin
"Laurie McMillin's account of unrecognized racism in a small Wisconsin village is wonderful and insightful yet painful."—Chloris Lowe Jr., former president of the Ho-Chunk Nation
"In this evocative book-at once history, investigative journalism, and richly textured memoir—Laurie McMillin re-narrates the good stories good people tell themselves about the past and present of their homes."—Philip Deloria, author of Playing Indian
