Ancient glaciers bypassed the Driftless Area, located in southwestern Wisconsin and nearby states. As a result, waterways including the Mississippi River, Kickapoo, and Wisconsin Rivers vein its interior, forming an enchanting landscape of sharp ridge tops and deep valleys. Over time, this rugged area has been home to an astonishing variety of peoples, including Native Americans, European immigrants, Mexican and Hmong immigrants. The Driftless Reader contains many literary, scientific, and journalistic writings, including contributions by Aldo Leopold, Laura Ingalls Wilder, and Frank Lloyd Wright. Curt Meine and Keefe Keeley will bring to life the natural and cultural history of this unique area.
