Three Wisconsin Cushings: A Sketch Of The Lives Of Howard B., Alonzo H. And William B. Cushing, Children Of A Pioneer Family Of Waukesha County is a historical non-fiction book written by Theron Wilber Haight in 1910. The book provides a detailed account of the lives of three brothers - Howard B., Alonzo H., and William B. Cushing - who were born and raised in Waukesha County, Wisconsin, during the mid-19th century. The Cushings were the children of a pioneer family, and their lives were shaped by the challenges and opportunities of the rapidly changing American frontier.The book covers the Cushings' childhood, their education, and their various accomplishments and achievements as adults. Howard B. Cushing was a successful lawyer and judge, while Alonzo H. Cushing became a celebrated Union Army officer during the American Civil War. William B. Cushing, meanwhile, gained fame as a daring naval officer who carried out several important missions during the Civil War.Throughout the book, Haight provides a richly detailed portrait of the Cushings and their family, as well as the broader historical context in which they lived. He also draws on a wide range of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and other documents, to provide a vivid and engaging account of their lives.Overall, Three Wisconsin Cushings is a valuable historical resource for anyone interested in the history of Wisconsin, the American frontier, or the Civil War. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of three remarkable brothers who played important roles in shaping the history of their state and their country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
