| Description | Lapham composed these 19 letters between 1846 and 1852, while researching and writing his book, The Antiquities of Wisconsin (linked on the Turning Points site). Some of the letters are to his sponsors and publishers and others to colleagues and informants, but the best are those he sent home to his wife in the summer of 1850, while actually in the field investigating the mounds. Scattered throughout the correspondence are drawing and sketches of mounds and other natural features. To see a typed version of any of these handwritten letters, click the "Page & Text" button at the upper right. |
