About this book

A few men and women, mostly from German-speaking cantons, pioneered this remarkable Swiss community in the mid-1830s. Thousands who followed in their footsteps participated actively in the development of a vibrant new city, branding it with a unique style of efficiency and progressivism. The immigrants and their progeny prospered and distinguished themselves in various fields of science, commerce, art, and industry. They helped launch Charlie Chaplin?s career, produced coumarin used in flavorings and perfumes, wrote a popular guide for 19th-century immigrants, and helped shape the nation?s banking industry. Among their finest were Milwaukee?s first archbishop, a world-renowned surgeon, an elected governor, an influential radical ?free-thinker,? a kindergarten pioneer, a wine grower, a successful whiskey distiller, and a prolific architect.
