Book excerpt: Excerpt from Summer of 1889: Routes, Rates, Hotels, Game Laws and Other Valuable Information A drive, or, better still, a tramp through the far-famed lake region of Wisconsin reveals to the observant wanderer a perpetual change of delightful views. Hundreds of summer cottages, varying in style from the rude cabin of the camper-out to the Queen Anne mansion of the metropolitan millionaire, are encountered by the eye at every turn of the road. Some of these private summer homes are truly palatial in their appointments and sur roundings. Gorgeous masses of bedded flowers line the pebbly walks; the lawn is kept as smooth and soft as a velvet carpet by the continued application of steam rollers; there are stables and boat-houses elaborately finished in the finest of hard woods; the billiard room, bowling alley, shoot ing gallery and tennis court afford constant entertainment for the visiting guests ashore, while, if they care to venture on the lake, there is always at their disposal a steam yacht fit for a Cleopatra, with white enameled sides, softest of plush cushions, and brass trimmings so highly polished that it seems almost sacrilege to touch them.
