Time after time, a round-faced man with a bristly mustache appeared amongst loggers in late nineteenth-century photos, but who was this man? In 1903, residents were left stumped when a mysterious body arrived by train from Chicago. Thirty years later, Hollywood came to Eau Claire with a world premiere of Out All Night, a comedy starring Zasu Pitts and Slim Summerville. Facing a labor shortage during World War II, the city welcomed German POWs and often worked side by side with them in the corn and pea fields. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLocal authors Jodi Kiffmeyer and Diana Peterson collect the humorous, heart-breaking, and utterly befuddling stories of the city's past. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Diana Peterson, Jodi Kiffmeyer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1467157198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467157193\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Diana Peterson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46465877147903,"sku":"9781467157193","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_07de8947-558b-4d76-85cc-3a80811b0c16.jpg?v=1736347546","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hidden-history-of-eau-claire-diana-peterson-9781467157193","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
