Wisconsin State Capitol (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798330230976)

There is a saying, "It was a Friday night and it seemed like a good idea at the time." That sums up the beginning of the State Capitols Project.

When Jane Moorman told her brother of her idea of photographing state capitols, he said, "You do know there are 50 states and two of them you can't drive to."

Her answer was, "Your point is? It gives me a good reason to visit every state."

Each capitol has its own unique beauty that reflects the state's personality when it was built.

Wisconsin loves of its official state animal, the badger, is seen throughout the state capitol, from the head of the statue on the capitol's dome to it hovering over the entrance to the legislative chambers.

Also, a body double of a bald eagle roosts above the state's Assembly Chamber floor to remind legislators of the service the original Civil War veteran eagle 'Old Abe' performed as it presided over the assembly in 1881.
