Caramel Crisp Corner is hosting author Ed Bentley at 5:30 p.m., Sept. 14th.
Bentley will discuss his book “What a Way to Go! Death in Oshkosh in the 1880s."
Before photography was commonplace, newspaper writers used a unique, graphic style of writing to allow readers to visualize the sometimes horrific and tragic events that occurred in their cities and neighborhoods. This book showcases such articles and obituaries from the 1880's in Oshkosh and is a fascinating read for residents, researchers and history buffs.
