Schuster's & Gimbels by Paul Geenen Pdf

A nostalgic journey into the life of these Wisconsin shopping meccas—including photos and illustrations. For well over a century, Milwaukee shoppers have had Gimbels or Schuster’s in their lives. Even if they didn’t crave sewing notions or prize-winning apple pies, they were watching holiday parades wind by, tuning in for Billie the Brownie’s radio updates, or losing themselves in front of one of the department stores’ fabulous window displays. Not only were they magical places to shop but also wonderful places to work, creating the kind of community where a kid might come in to help out with the Christmas rush and stay for twenty-five years. Enjoy this loving trip through the history of these beloved stores, from their arrival in Milwaukee in the 1880s through the 1962 merger and beyond.

Schuster's & Gimbels by Paul H. Geenen Pdf

"This title traces department store retailing in America back to Adam Gimbel's immigration in the early 1800s. He started the successful, innovative flagship Gimbels Department Store in Milwaukee and purchased Schuster's in the '50s, and it became the largest department store of its kind in the country. All Gimbels locations closed after being bought out in the '70s"--

Daughter of the Queen of Sheba by Jacki Lyden Pdf

This account of growing up with a mentally ill mother “belongs on a shelf of classic memoirs, alongside The Liars’ Club and Angela’s Ashes” (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times). As an NPR correspondent, Jacki Lyden visited some dangerous war zones—but her childhood was a war zone of a different kind. Lyden’s mother suffered from what is now called bipolar disorder or manic depression. But in a small Wisconsin town in the sixties and seventies she was simply “crazy.” In her delusions, Lyden’s mother was a woman of power: Marie Antoinette or the Queen of Sheba. But in reality, she had married the nefarious local doctor, who drugged her to keep her moods in check and terrorized the children to keep them quiet. Holding their lives together was Lyden’s hardscrabble Irish grandmother, a woman who had her first child at the age of fourteen and lost her husband in a barroom brawl. In this memoir, Lyden vividly captures the seductive energy of her mother’s delusions and the effect they had on her own life. She paints a portrait of three remarkable women—mother, daughter, and grandmother—revealing their obstinate devotion to one another against all odds, and their scrappy genius for survival. “What distinguishes Daughter of the Queen of Sheba from any other book about dysfunctional parents . . . and turns this exotic memoir into compelling literature is the dreamy poetry of Lyden’s prose. In graceful imagery as original (and occasionally as highly wrought) as her mother’s costumes, Lyden—a senior correspondent for National Public Radio—loops and loops again around the central fact of her mother’s manic depression and how that illness shaped Lyden’s life growing up with two younger sisters, a scrappy Irish grandmother (whose memory she holds like ‘a cotton rag around a cut’), a father who left, and a hated stepfather.” —Entertainment Weekly

Cross the Viaduct by Krystyna Rodriguez Pdf

It's Milwaukee, it's the 60's, and this segregated city is about to blow. Jozef Miszewski, a union organizer, has always taught his family to fight for justice but he has no idea his daughter Lila is getting mixed up with Father Groppi and those rabble-rousers from St. Boniface who are planning to march across town to Kosciusko Park. It's Milwaukee, it's the 60s and parents can't rely on internet searches, cell phones or emails to keep tabs on their kids. Secrets are easily hidden and the Miszewski kids are pros, especially the youngest, Kazia, who learns how to cover her tracks when she crosses the viaduct.
