About this product

Product Information

With Wisconsin Curiosities, popular public radio show host Michael Feldman brings his "deliciously sarcastic" perspective to the subject of his home state. Together with coauthor Diana Cook, he's combed Wisconsin for more than 125 of the weirdest, wackiest, most outrageous people, places, and things the Badger State has to offer. * You'll meet the world's largest talking cow, a man who converted a pickup truck into a tree house, and a man who holds the world's record in cricket spitting.* You'll learn how Highway H becomes 2.5 miles longer in winter, where to find part of the Great Wall of China, and how a fifty-five-ton boulder ended up in the master bedroom of a house. * You'll experience a game of baseball on snowshoes, the Parade of Beef at the annual Beef- A-Rama festival, and National Mustard Day at the Mustard Museum.

Reviews
"Michael Feldman's incisive look at Badger State oddities finally allows Wisconsin to merge from the long shadow of beer, cheese, sausage, and more beer. The reader will have to decide whether this is a good thing." --Joe Queenan, humorist and author of Red Lobster, White Trash, & the Blue Lagoon, "Michael Feldman's incisive look at Badger State oddities finally allows Wisconsin to merge from the long shadow of beer, cheese, sausage, and more beer.
