1
18:40:03,170 --> 18:40:08,242
HOSPITAL AND EVEN GOT A RUSSIAN
COURT ORDER TO DO SO, YET

2
18:40:08,308 --> 18:40:10,310
RUSSIAN AUTHORITIES HAVE NOT
ALLOWED THAT TO OCCUR.

3
18:40:10,377 --> 18:40:12,613
SO WE DON'T HAVE EYES ON
VERIFICATION.

4
18:40:12,679 --> 18:40:17,584
WE HAVE BEEN RECEIVING REPORTS
THROUGH THE EMBASSY.

5
18:40:17,651 --> 18:40:19,520
BUT THE FACT IS THE U.S.
GOVERNMENT AGREES HIS LIFE IS IN

6
18:40:19,586 --> 18:40:22,456
JEOPARDY.
HE NEEDS HUMANITARIAN RELIEF'S

7
18:40:22,523 --> 18:40:25,325
RIGHT NOW.
STEPHANIE: A TRUMP

8
18:40:28,562 --> 18:40:30,931
ADMINISTRATION OFFICIAL SENT US
A STATEMENT ON BACKGROUND SING

9
18:40:30,998 --> 18:40:33,534
THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS
CLOSELY TRACKING THE CASE AND

10
18:40:33,600 --> 18:40:35,369
HAS MADE REPEATED, CONCERTED
OUTREACH TO THE RUSSIANS CALLING

11
18:40:35,435 --> 18:40:38,972
FOR HIS RETURN TO THE UNITED
STATES, BUT THE STATE DEPARTMENT

12
18:40:39,039 --> 18:40:41,341
HAS NOT YET DECIDED TO SAY HE
WAS WRONGFULLY DETAINED.

13
18:40:41,408 --> 18:40:42,442
WHY WON'T THEY AND WHAT DO YOU
MAKE OF THE GOVERNMENT'S CURRENT

14
18:40:42,509 --> 18:40:45,746
EFFORTS TO GAIN ROBERT'S
RELEASE?

15
18:40:48,515 --> 18:40:52,319
>> WE ARE DEFINITELY COMFORTED
BY THE FACT AND ENCOURAGED BY

16
18:40:52,386 --> 18:40:54,488
THE FACT THAT THE WHITE HOUSE AT
THE MOST SENIOR LEVELS WE KNOW

17
18:40:54,555 --> 18:40:59,092
ARE WORKING RIGHT NOW BEHIND THE
SCENES ALONG WITH TEAMS OF QUIET

18
18:40:59,159 --> 18:41:00,227
PROFESSIONALS ACROSS THE STATE
TO GET ROBERT HOME.

19
18:41:00,294 --> 18:41:05,632
BUT THE ISSUE OF WRONGFUL
DETENTION REVOLVES AROUND THAT

20
18:41:07,534 --> 18:41:10,237
ROBERT LEVINSON HOSTAGE TAKING
AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 2020

21
18:41:10,304 --> 18:41:12,406
THAT OFFICIALLY LABELS AN
AMERICAN BEING HELD IN A FOREIGN

22
18:41:12,472 --> 18:41:18,011
COUNTRY AS WRONGFULLY,
UNLAWFULLY, UNJUSTLY DETAINED.

23
18:41:18,078 --> 18:41:21,782
MR. GILMAN HAS BEEN IN THIS
SITUATION FOR OVER 1600 DAYS,

24
18:41:21,849 --> 18:41:26,119
FOUR YEARS AT THIS POINT.
THERE WAS A DEBATE INSIDE THE

25
18:41:26,186 --> 18:41:28,322
STATE DEPARTMENT WHETHER MR.
GILMAN OR FIVE OTHER CLIENTS WE

26
18:41:28,388 --> 18:41:33,293
HAVE THAT ARE SUFFERING RIGHT
NOW AND RUSSIAN GULAGS SHOULD BE

27
18:41:33,360 --> 18:41:36,129
DESIGNATED AS SUCH, BUT THE FEAR
ON ONE SIDE IS THAT THAT WILL

28
18:41:36,196 --> 18:41:40,100
RAISE THE COST IN SECURING THEIR
RELEASE.

29
18:41:42,703 --> 18:41:43,737
WE DISAGREE WITH THAT.
WE KNOW THAT WRONGFUL DETENTION

30
18:41:43,804 --> 18:41:46,406
DESIGNATION TELLS THOSE
FAMILIES, YOUR LOVED ONE IS A

31
18:41:46,473 --> 18:41:49,343
TOP PRIORITY AND IT TELLS THOSE
COUNTRIES YOU BETTER LET THESE

32
18:41:49,409 --> 18:41:52,379
PEOPLE GO OR ELSE THERE WILL BE
SEVERE CONSEQUENCES.

33
18:41:52,446 --> 18:41:55,582
STEPHANIE: YOU HAVE BEEN
INVESTIGATING THESE CASES FOR A

34
18:41:55,649 --> 18:41:59,686
NUMBER OF YEARS.
AS YOU SAID, MR. GILMAN'S

35
18:41:59,753 --> 18:42:03,991
SENTENCE HAS GONE BEYOND FOUR
AND A HALF YEARS AT THIS POINT

36
18:42:04,057 --> 18:42:09,396
AND HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO A
DECADE, WHICH IS CONTROVERSIAL

37
18:42:10,364 --> 18:42:10,998
IN ITSELF.
HOW WOULD YOU CHARACTERIZE THIS

38
18:42:11,064 --> 18:42:12,132
CASE?
WHAT MAKES IT STAND OUT?

39
18:42:12,199 --> 18:42:16,770
>> MR. GILMAN IS ACTUALLY THE
THIRD MARINE WE HAVE SEEN

40
18:42:16,837 --> 18:42:18,539
TARGETED BY THE RUSSIANS IN
RECENT YEARS.

41
18:42:18,605 --> 18:42:20,207
IF YOU LOOK AT TREVOR REED AND
PAUL LELAND.

42
18:42:20,274 --> 18:42:24,411
-- PAUL LELAND.
THE SUFFERING AT THE HANDS OF

43
18:42:28,916 --> 18:42:29,950
THE PRISON GUARDS HAS BEEN FAR
WORSE THAN ANYTHING WE'VE SEEN

44
18:42:30,017 --> 18:42:33,587
BEFORE.
THE TROUBLING ASPECT OF ALL OF

45
18:42:36,890 --> 18:42:37,758
THIS IS THAT RIGHT NOW AS WE SIT
HERE, WE ARE NOT SURE MR. GILMAN

46
18:42:37,824 --> 18:42:39,793
IS GOING TO MAKE IT.
WE ARE PLEADING WITH THE

47
18:42:39,860 --> 18:42:43,197
GOVERNMENT OF RUSSIA TO TAKE
THIS OPPORTUNITY, SEE IT FOR

48
18:42:43,263 --> 18:42:44,631
WHAT IT IS.
THIS IS NOT SOME GEOPOLITICAL

49
18:42:44,698 --> 18:42:47,167
POWER.
THIS IS SIMPLY HUMANITARIAN

50
18:42:47,234 --> 18:42:50,470
RELEASE.
WE KNOW THAT IF MR. GILMAN

51
18:42:52,506 --> 18:42:54,608
PERISHES IN A RUSSIAN PRISON
AFTER BEING WRONGFULLY DETAINED

52
18:42:54,675 --> 18:42:57,477
FOR FOUR YEARS, THE AMERICAN
PUBLIC WILL NOT FORGET THAT.

53
18:42:57,544 --> 18:43:02,549
STEPHANIE: THAT IS KIERAN RAMSEY
WITH THE ADVOCACY GROUP GLOBAL

54
18:43:02,616 --> 18:43:04,084
REACH JOINING US.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.

55
18:43:04,151 --> 18:43:08,155
>> THANK YOU.
GEOFF: WE WILL BE BACK SHORTLY

56
18:43:18,866 --> 18:43:20,000
WITH A LOOK AT THE HISTORY BEING
REVEALED BY A EUROPEAN RIVER

57
18:43:20,067 --> 18:43:23,337
THAT'S DRYING UP.
BUT FIRST, TAKE A MOMENT TO HEAR

58
18:43:23,403 --> 18:43:24,505
FROM YOUR LOCAL PBS STATION.
IT'S A CHANCE TO OFFER YOUR

59
18:43:24,571 --> 18:43:29,710
SUPPORT, WHICH HELPS KEEP
PROGRAMS LIKE THIS ONE ON THE

a pledge of financiald make

64

doing a challenge break

GEOFF: IN EUROPE, A CLIMATE

189
18:50:33,834 --> 18:50:35,536
CRISIS IS UNEARTHING HISTORY.
MONTHS OF BRUTAL HEAT WAVES HAVE

190
18:50:35,602 --> 18:50:37,838
LEFT THE DANUBE RIVER AT A
CRITICALLY LOW LEVEL.

191
18:50:37,905 --> 18:50:41,308
BUT AS THE WATER VANISHES, IT'S
REVEALING REMARKABLE RELICS FROM

192
18:50:41,375 --> 18:50:42,376
THE PAST, INCLUDING NAZI
WARSHIPS AND EVEN THE FOSSILIZED

193
18:50:42,442 --> 18:50:47,080
BONES OF A WOOLY MAMMOTH.
DEEMA ZEIN HAS OUR REPORT.

194
18:50:47,147 --> 18:50:51,084
REPORTER: WORLD WAR II ERA
SHIPWRECKS ARE EMERGING AS ONE

195
18:50:51,151 --> 18:50:54,955
OF EUROPE'S BIGGEST RIVERS
DISAPPEARS.

196
18:50:55,022 --> 18:51:01,028
THE DANUBE WATER LEVELS ARE AT
CRITICALLY LOW LEVELS, REVEALING

197
18:51:03,263 --> 18:51:06,600
ISLANDS, ANIMAL FOSSILS AND THE
REMAINS OF SUNKEN WARSHIPS.

198
18:51:06,667 --> 18:51:09,536
IT IS EUROPE'S SECOND-LONGEST
FLOWING THROUGH 10 COUNTRIES AND

199
18:51:09,603 --> 18:51:14,675
SPANNING 10,000 100 MILES.
WORLD WAR II ERA NAZI WARSHIPS

200
18:51:14,741 --> 18:51:18,078
ARE REVEALED THROUGH THE
RIVERBED.

201
18:51:19,146 --> 18:51:22,416
IN SERBIA AT LEAST 2200 OF THE
GERMAN SHIPS INTENTIONALLY

202
18:51:22,482 --> 18:51:27,721
SCUTTLED CAN BE SEEN FROM A
VILLAGE LOCATED ON THE RIVER.

203
18:51:30,090 --> 18:51:31,158
WHILE SOME OF THE SHIPS HAD BEEN
PREVIOUSLY REMOVED BY THE

204
18:51:31,225 --> 18:51:33,861
COMMUNIST YUGOSLAV AUTHORITIES,
MANY REMAINED DUE TO THE

205
18:51:33,927 --> 18:51:37,965
DANGEROUS EXPLOSIVES ON BOARD.
NOW THE WARSHIPS ARE NOT THE

206
18:51:38,031 --> 18:51:42,603
ONLY HISTORIC RELICS RESURFACING
FROM THE PAST.

207
18:51:49,776 --> 18:51:50,511
IN BULGARIA, SOME RESIDENTS
DISCOVER THE BONES OF A WOOLLY

208
18:51:50,577 --> 18:51:51,678
MAMMOTH.
THE ANIMALS COEXISTED WITH A

209
18:51:51,745 --> 18:51:52,846
TREND TO HUMANS AND WERE FRONTED
FOR FOOD, TUSKS, AND BONES

210
18:51:52,913 --> 18:51:54,615
BEFORE THEY WENT EXTINCT.
FOR PBS NEWS HOUR, I DEEMA ZEIN.

211
18:51:54,681 --> 18:51:57,017
AMGEOFF: OVER THE PAST FEW
WEEKS, JUDY WOODRUFF HAS BEEN

212
18:51:57,084 --> 18:51:58,919
SPEAKING TO A HOST OF EXPERTS
ABOUT THE COUNTRY'S 250TH

213
18:51:58,986 --> 18:52:00,120
ANNIVERSARY FOR HER IN PURSUIT
OF HAPPINESS PODCAST.

214
18:52:00,187 --> 18:52:01,488
THAT INCLUDES CONVERSATIONS
ABOUT THE ROLES SATIRE, NATIONAL

215
18:52:01,555 --> 18:52:03,724
PARKS AND MUSIC HAVE PLAYED IN
OUR HISTORY, AS WELL AS THE

216
18:52:03,790 --> 18:52:08,362
LATEST EPISODE LOOKING AT HOW
AMERICAN ENGLISH EVOLVED.

217
18:52:08,428 --> 18:52:09,530
AS IT TURNS OUT, THERE'S ONE
WORD THAT'S REVEALS A LOT ABOUT

218
18:52:09,596 --> 18:52:13,934
THE WAY WE SPEAK.
>> I THINK A REALLY ACCESSIBLE

219
18:52:23,177 --> 18:52:24,077
EXAMPLE OF HOW THESE INTRINSIC
TENDENCIES WE HAVE TOWARDS

220
18:52:24,144 --> 18:52:26,880
CHANGE IS IN THE WAY THAT WE
PRONOUNCED BUTTER.

221
18:52:26,947 --> 18:52:32,519
IF YOU ARE BRITISH, A SOUTHERN
BRITISH ENGLISH SPEAKER, YOU

222
18:52:35,956 --> 18:52:40,194
WILL SAY SOMETHING LIKE BUTTER.
IF YOU'RE AN AMERICAN, YOU WILL

223
18:52:40,260 --> 18:52:43,797
SAY BUTTER.
THERE'S A TENDENCY IN THE

224
18:52:43,864 --> 18:52:48,168
LANGUAGE WHEN YOU HAVE AN
UNSTRESSED SYLLABLE, FOR THINGS

225
18:52:48,235 --> 18:52:49,369
TO REDUCE.
SOUNDS TO REDUCE.

226
18:52:49,436 --> 18:52:54,875
IN BRITISH ENGLISH, ESPECIALLY
SOUTHERN BRITISH ENGLISH, YOU

227
18:52:54,942 --> 18:52:57,077
DROP THE R.
BUT IN AMERICAN ENGLISH, WE KEPT

228
18:52:57,144 --> 18:53:00,547
THE R.
WE DID NOT DO THAT TO REDUCE BUT

229
18:53:00,614 --> 18:53:05,853
INSTEAD WE REDUCED WITH THE T.
SO IF YOU SAY BUT-TER, YOUR

230
18:53:09,723 --> 18:53:11,024
STANDARD.
BUT IF YOU SAY BUTTER, YOU ARE

231
18:53:11,091 --> 18:53:15,229
AMERICAN.
IT'S NOT GEOGRAPHIC DISTANCE BUT

232
18:53:16,830 --> 18:53:19,600
SOCIAL DISTANCE, AND THEN YOU
SEE GEOGRAPHIC DISTANCE THAT

233
18:53:19,666 --> 18:53:25,339
SEPARATED PEOPLE LEADING TO THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ABOUT --

234
18:53:27,674 --> 18:53:32,346
BUT-TAH AND BUTTER.
JUDY: I'M THINKING OF HOW MUCH

235
18:53:33,180 --> 18:53:35,582
AMERICANS MOVE AROUND NOW.
YOU MAY BE BORN IN THE NORTH AND

236
18:53:35,649 --> 18:53:38,218
MOVED TO THE SOUTH OR VICE
VERSA, OR IN THE EAST AND MOVED

237
18:53:38,285 --> 18:53:41,755
TO THE WEST.
OF COURSE MEDIA, MOVIES,

238
18:53:43,557 --> 18:53:44,725
TELEVISION, RADIO, LISTENING TO
OTHER VOICES.

239
18:53:44,791 --> 18:53:49,730
HOW HAS ALL THAT, AND ESPECIALLY
THE MEDIA, THE PRESENCE OF THE

240
18:53:49,796 --> 18:53:54,701
MEDIA, SHE BEGUN TO CHANGE, OR
HAS IT CHANGED, OR IS IT

241
18:53:56,403 --> 18:54:01,542
CHANGING HOW PEOPLE TALK?
>> THERE ARE THE CHANGES AND

242
18:54:01,608 --> 18:54:04,578
THINGS THAT PEOPLE REALLY
NOTICE, NEW SLANG COMES OUT AND

243
18:54:04,645 --> 18:54:09,983
EVERYBODY WANTS TO TALK ABOUT
SIX SEVEN, OR RIZZ, OR THESE

244
18:54:12,586 --> 18:54:14,755
THINGS.
BUT ONE OF THE THINGS I STUDY IS

245
18:54:14,821 --> 18:54:17,891
THE MORE SUBTLE CHANGES THAT GO
BELOW THE RADAR.

246
18:54:17,958 --> 18:54:19,760
THE SORTS OF THAT WILL CHANGE AS
I WAS TALKING ABOUT.

247
18:54:19,826 --> 18:54:24,565
BUT FOR EXAMPLE, I THINK SOME
PEOPLE HAVE NOTICED THE WORD

248
18:54:24,631 --> 18:54:29,303
SHALL IS NOT HEALTHY, IT IS
DYING OUT OF THE LANGUAGE.

249
18:54:29,369 --> 18:54:32,372
WHAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE NOT
NOTICED IS THAT THE WORD MUST IN

250
18:54:32,439 --> 18:54:38,178
THE SENSE OF OBLIGATION, LIKE I
MUST RUN ERRANDS, YOU CAN HEAR

251
18:54:38,245 --> 18:54:42,249
THAT I DO IT VERY SERIOUSLY.
WHAT I WOULD TEND TO SAY IS I

252
18:54:42,316 --> 18:54:43,350
HAVE TO RUN ERRANDS OR I NEED TO
RUN ERRANDS.

253
18:54:43,417 --> 18:54:47,654
HAVE TO AND NEED TO ARE
REPLACING MUST IN THE SENSE OF

254
18:54:47,721 --> 18:54:51,291
OBLIGATION.
IF YOU HANG OUT WITH YOUNG

255
18:54:51,859 --> 18:54:55,062
PEOPLE, AS VALERIE DOES AS WELL,
YOU KNOW ON ACCIDENT IS COMING

256
18:54:55,128 --> 18:54:57,965
INTO THE LANGUAGE AND BY
ACCIDENT IS MOVING OUT OF THE

257
18:54:58,031 --> 18:55:00,501
LANGUAGE.

ALWAYS HAD DIFFICULTY CONVEYING

BEGUN THE FIVE-PLUS-YEAR PROCESS

ITSELF WAS MORE THAN 120 YEARS

412
19:04:51,925 --> 19:04:55,062
FORGOTTEN THE ENORMOUS IMPACT OF

NOT ONLY THE EMANCIPATION OF 4

AND PSYCHOLOGICAL CHANGES THAT

416
19:05:13,981 --> 19:05:16,550

ACCIDENTALLY THE CIVIL WAR AS A

418
19:05:22,256 --> 19:05:24,391
SO I REALIZED IT WASN'T

419
19:05:26,393 --> 19:05:29,296
UNDERSTAND THAT EVERYTHING IN

420

AND EVERYTHING SINCE HAS BEEN A

421
19:05:34,334 --> 19:05:36,503
THIS WAS THE CENTRAL EVENT IN

422
19:05:36,570 --> 19:05:39,573
I WAS COMPELLED TO DO SOMETHING.

423
19:05:40,407 --> 19:05:42,776
AND WENT LIKE THIS IS COMPLETELY
>> A HUGE LIGHT BULB WENT ON

AND THIS EXTRAORDINARY TREASURE

427
19:05:53,754 --> 19:05:56,356

437
19:06:27,521 --> 19:06:29,189
TERRIFYING.

19:09:15,289 --> 19:09:17,191
I STAYED AND SAW ALL.

478
19:09:21,895 --> 19:09:24,231
HIM A LITTLE CHLOROFORM.

479
19:09:25,165 --> 19:09:27,835
FANS HIM, FOR IT IS FEARFULLY

480
19:09:28,435 --> 19:09:30,904
HE ASKS TO BE RAISED UP, AND

481
19:09:32,005 --> 19:09:33,674
POSTURE.

482
19:09:34,708 --> 19:09:37,377
HALF-DELIRIOUSLY, ALL DAY.

483
19:09:40,147 --> 19:09:43,250
LIFE EBBS, RUNS NOW WITH THE
SPEED OF A MILL RACE.

484
19:09:43,317 --> 19:09:46,220
A CROWD, INCLUDING TWO OR THREE

485
19:09:47,521 --> 19:09:50,090
MANY SOLDIERS HAS SILENTLY

486
19:09:51,692 --> 19:09:53,927
THE STRUGGLE GOES ON AND

487
19:09:55,028 --> 19:09:56,697
LITTLE MORE.

488
19:09:58,432 --> 19:10:00,567
PAINLESSNESS, DEATH.

489
19:10:04,171 --> 19:10:06,640
UNTIL YOU WALK A MILE IN ITS

490
19:10:08,775 --> 19:10:11,778
THAT LEFT YOU BLISTERED AND SORE

491
19:10:13,380 --> 19:10:15,616
WE THOUGHT IT WAS HUGELY

492
19:10:16,083 --> 19:10:19,086
BOMBARDED WITH STATISTICS THAT

493
19:10:19,720 --> 19:10:22,222
THAT THEY WERE REAL HUMAN LIVES

494
19:10:22,289 --> 19:10:25,058
THERE WERE PRIVATES, GRUNTS THAT

495
19:10:25,125 --> 19:10:28,028
BAD FOOD, WHO CAUGHT DISEASES,

496
19:10:28,328 --> 19:10:30,631
THEY WOULD DIE, ALL OF THAT

497
19:10:30,697 --> 19:10:33,500
CAMPS OR SURVIVED THE WAR, AND

498
19:10:33,934 --> 19:10:36,603
ADVENTURE BUT SAW HORRIBLE,

499
19:10:37,704 --> 19:10:39,706
THIS WAS IMPORTANT TO

500
19:10:39,773 --> 19:10:42,242
>> WE LIVE SO MEAN HERE THAT

501
19:10:43,677 --> 19:10:46,480
MEAT STINKS LIKE HELL AND RICE

502
19:10:47,414 --> 19:10:50,083
WORMS AS LONG AS YOUR FINGER.

503
19:10:51,385 --> 19:10:53,053
THE STUFF NOW.

504
19:10:55,956 --> 19:10:58,859
OCCURRENCE FOR A MAN TO FIND THE

505

507
19:11:07,467 --> 19:11:09,136
BEHIND.

508
19:11:12,206 --> 19:11:14,875
BEANS AND COLLARDS OFTEN AND

509
19:11:15,475 --> 19:11:18,412
WISH FOR SOME, BUT WISHING DOES
NO GOOD.

510
19:11:18,478 --> 19:11:20,480
>> THE IMPACT OF THESE

648
19:19:33,640 --> 19:19:36,210

649
19:19:37,177 --> 19:19:39,646

19:28:45,425 --> 19:28:47,127
AND I TURNED TO BUDDY, AND I
SAID, "WHAT DO YOU THINK?"

812
19:28:47,194 --> 19:28:48,862
OF BORING."

813
19:28:49,496 --> 19:28:51,832
SOMETHING THAT'S SORT OF

814
19:28:52,933 --> 19:28:55,636
I SAID, "YEAH, BUT YOU'RE THE

815
19:28:55,702 --> 19:28:57,638
GUY WHO THOUGHT SHELBY FOOTE WAS
BORING."

816
19:28:57,704 --> 19:29:00,541
I WAS SORT OF TERRIFIED BY THAT,

817
19:29:00,607 --> 19:29:02,910
OF SIT DOWN AND LOOK AT THE

818
19:29:02,976 --> 19:29:05,312
I REALIZE WE'RE SELECTING

819
19:29:05,379 --> 19:29:07,848
AND PRETTY SOON, OUR LONG,

820
19:29:08,649 --> 19:29:11,451
AND I HAD WORKED OUT THAT WERE

821
19:29:11,518 --> 19:29:14,421
QUESTION LENGTH WERE SUDDENLY

822
19:29:16,089 --> 19:29:17,758
"GRANT."

823
19:29:18,625 --> 19:29:20,360
ABOUT U.S. GRANT, AND IT WOULD

824
19:29:20,427 --> 19:29:23,096
>> GRANT THE GENERAL HAS MANY

825
19:29:24,531 --> 19:29:27,100
THAT'S VERY NECESSARY FOR A

826
19:29:29,436 --> 19:29:32,105
HE HAD WHAT THEY CALL "4:00 IN

827
19:29:32,739 --> 19:29:35,542
YOU COULD WAKE HIM UP AT 4:00 IN

828
19:29:35,976 --> 19:29:38,378
THEY HAD JUST TURNED HIS RIGHT

829
19:29:38,445 --> 19:29:40,113
AS A CUCUMBER.

830
19:29:40,981 --> 19:29:43,517
CONCENTRATE, AND A GOOD EXAMPLE

831
19:29:43,584 --> 19:29:46,386
AT HIS DESK BENT OVER WRITING,

832
19:29:47,254 --> 19:29:50,123
ACROSS THE ROOM, A DOCUMENT OR

833
19:29:50,190 --> 19:29:52,626
HE WOULD GET UP AND NEVER GET

834
19:29:52,693 --> 19:29:55,162
GO OVER THERE AND PICK UP THE

835
19:29:55,229 --> 19:29:57,898
HIS DESK AND SIT DOWN WITHOUT

836
19:29:58,232 --> 19:30:00,801
IT'S AN EXAMPLE OF HOW HE COULD

837
19:30:00,868 --> 19:30:03,537
>> IN MANY WAYS, THE FILM TOOK

838
19:30:04,738 --> 19:30:07,641
PATIENCE, THAT WILLINGNESS TO

839
19:30:09,476 --> 19:30:11,945
AN IMAGE, TO PAINT AN IMAGE

840
19:30:14,081 --> 19:30:16,550
ANXIOUS IF THERE'S NOT BIG

841
19:30:19,219 --> 19:30:21,855
THAT YOU'VE GOT A CUT POINT

842
19:30:21,922 --> 19:30:24,057
THE SERIES SO SPECIAL.

843
19:30:26,293 --> 19:30:27,961
WAY OF YELLING.

844
19:30:28,896 --> 19:30:31,031
THE NORTHERN TROOPS MADE A SORT
OF HURRAH.

845
19:30:31,098 --> 19:30:33,667
"THE DEEP, GENEROUS, MANLY

846
19:30:34,334 --> 19:30:37,237
THE CONFEDERATES OF COURSE HAD

847
19:30:37,671 --> 19:30:40,607
WE DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT THAT

848
19:30:40,674 --> 19:30:43,677
ONE NORTHERNER DESCRIBED IT, HE

849
19:30:44,678 --> 19:30:47,014
DESCRIBING THE PECULIAR

850
19:30:49,249 --> 19:30:52,152
YOUR BACKBONE WHEN YOU HEAR IT.

851
19:30:53,320 --> 19:30:55,889
CLAIMED YOU'VE HEARD IT AND

852
19:30:57,057 --> 19:31:00,127
WEREN'T SCARED, THAT MEANS
YOU NEVER HEARD IT."

853
19:31:00,194 --> 19:31:02,863
THINK, A SORT OF FOX-HUNT YIP

854
19:31:06,033 --> 19:31:08,702
SQUALL, AND IT WAS USED ON THE

855
19:31:10,270 --> 19:31:13,407
AN OLD CONFEDERATE VETERAN AFTER

856
19:31:14,675 --> 19:31:17,678
MEETING IN TENNESSEE SOMEWHERE

857
19:31:18,011 --> 19:31:20,814
THE LADIES HAD NEVER HEARD IT.

858
19:31:21,548 --> 19:31:24,351
EXCEPT AT A RUN, AND I COULDN'T

859
19:31:27,287 --> 19:31:30,123
FALSE TEETH AND A STOMACH FULL

860
19:31:30,190 --> 19:31:32,993
SO THEY NEVER GET TO HEAR WHAT

861
19:31:33,060 --> 19:31:35,863
>> WE HAD ASSUMED THAT WE WOULD

862
19:31:36,330 --> 19:31:39,032
PARADING THROUGH OUR FILM, BUT

863
19:31:39,099 --> 19:31:42,236
INTERESTED IN FINDING THE MOMENT

864
19:31:42,736 --> 19:31:45,639
COUNTERBALANCED BY THE KIND OF

865
19:31:47,774 --> 19:31:50,777
PROFESSOR BARBARA FIELDS OF THE

866
19:31:52,646 --> 19:31:54,314
DEPARTMENT.

867
19:31:55,516 --> 19:31:58,185
WHAT SHE FELT WAS THE CENTRAL

868
19:31:58,252 --> 19:32:01,154
BURIED IN CIVIL WAR NARRATIVES

869
19:32:01,522 --> 19:32:03,991
BECAUSE OF HER, WE DIDN'T.

870
19:32:05,292 --> 19:32:07,961
MANY TIMES AS SHELBY, SHE HAS

871
19:32:08,595 --> 19:32:11,598
BECAUSE OF THE POWER, THAT SHE'S

872
19:32:12,299 --> 19:32:14,568
NOT INTERESTED IN WEAPONS AND
SOLDIERS.

873
19:32:14,635 --> 19:32:17,638
WEAPONS AND SOLDIERS MIGHT HAVE

874
19:32:18,739 --> 19:32:21,742
THIS WAR INTO SOMETHING HIGHER,

875
19:32:22,442 --> 19:32:25,345
MILLION AMERICAN CITIZENS AND

876
19:32:26,580 --> 19:32:28,248
DESCENDANTS.

877
19:32:29,950 --> 19:32:32,085
CIVIL WAR AS A HISTORIC

878
19:32:35,656 --> 19:32:39,426
BATTLEFIELD.
PHENOMENON IS NOT ON THE

879
19:32:39,493 --> 19:32:42,396
IT'S NOT ABOUT SOLDIERS EXCEPT

880
19:32:43,630 --> 19:32:46,099
SOLDIERS, AT THAT CRUCIAL

881
19:32:47,868 --> 19:32:50,771
ABOUT SOMETHING HIGHER, ABOUT

882
19:32:53,073 --> 19:32:55,075
ABOUT HUMAN FREEDOM.

883
19:32:58,045 --> 19:33:00,948
FIELDS AND SHELBY FOOTE HELPED

884
19:33:01,949 --> 19:33:04,284
THE CIVIL WAR TO LIFE, BUT

885
19:33:05,786 --> 19:33:08,021
AND REQUIRED A NEW WAY OF

886
19:33:10,190 --> 19:33:12,993
THE BLOODIEST WAR IN AMERICAN

887
19:33:13,293 --> 19:33:15,863
AFTER ALL, MOTION PICTURES

888
19:33:16,864 --> 19:33:20,000
SEIZED UPON THE BRAND-NEW VISUAL

889
19:33:21,835 --> 19:33:23,504
PHOTOGRAPHY.

890
19:33:26,039 --> 19:33:28,942
AT THIS TIME, NOT LONG AFTER THE

891
19:33:29,243 --> 19:33:32,145
CULTURE WHICH IS NOT YET USED TO

892
19:33:33,280 --> 19:33:36,083
TECHNOLOGY AVAILABLE, AND SO

893
19:33:36,984 --> 19:33:40,854
OF THE POLITICAL PROTOCOL TO
THEY HAVEN'T EVEN DEVELOPED SORT

894
19:33:40,921 --> 19:33:42,956
AND WHO CAN TAKE PICTURES OF
CONTROL HOW AND WHEN AND WHERE

895
19:33:43,023 --> 19:33:45,526
AND SO YOU BOTH HAVE THE THING

896
19:33:45,592 --> 19:33:48,462
AT THE REALITY IT'S SEEING AND

897

SEEN IN AMERICA BEFORE.

COME UP TO US VERY RARELY, EVEN

IN DREAMS.

903
19:34:17,391 --> 19:34:20,427
PAPER AT BREAKFAST BUT DISMISS

904
19:34:20,494 --> 19:34:22,963
MR. MATTHEW BRADY HAS DONE

905
19:34:28,635 --> 19:34:31,538
TERRIBLE REALITY AND EARNESTNESS

906
19:34:31,605 --> 19:34:34,508
IF HE HAS NOT BROUGHT BODIES AND

907
19:34:36,577 --> 19:34:39,379
ALONG OUR STREETS, HE HAS DONE

WANT TO DO IS HOLD THEM AT ARM'S

911
19:34:54,294 --> 19:34:57,130
I WAS INTERESTED IN TREATING A

912
19:34:57,197 --> 19:35:00,334
FILMMAKER WOULD--A MASTER SHOT,

913

OF A ONCE LIVING AND MOVING

914
19:35:04,338 --> 19:35:06,006
AS THAT.

915
19:35:06,673 --> 19:35:09,243
LISTEN TO IT, WHATEVER SOUNDS

916
19:35:09,309 --> 19:35:12,379
MAKING, GET A MASTER SHOT, GET A

917

CLOSE SHOT, AN EXTREME

INCREDIBLE LAYERING OF
SAW A PHOTO AND IT HAD SUCH AN

923
19:35:34,001 --> 19:35:36,904
WAYS TO VISUALIZE THAT TO TELL A

924
19:35:38,438 --> 19:35:41,241
STILL PHOTO AS A LANDSCAPE AND

925
19:35:45,012 --> 19:35:47,581
THOUGH YOU WERE THERE IN THE

926
19:35:48,282 --> 19:35:51,084
>> BY BRINGING YOUR FOCUS BACK

927
19:35:54,021 --> 19:35:56,490
TO THE STILL PHOTOGRAPHS,

928
19:35:57,024 --> 19:35:59,927
THOSE PICTURES OF SOMEBODY ON A

929
19:36:01,061 --> 19:36:03,630
HOLDING A MUSKET OVER THEIR

930
19:36:04,331 --> 19:36:07,134
FACES, YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THE

931
19:36:08,001 --> 19:36:11,004
>> THERE'S A PHOTOGRAPH I'M VERY

932
19:36:11,572 --> 19:36:14,141
IT SHOWS THREE CONFEDERATE

933
19:36:14,508 --> 19:36:17,411
GETTYSBURG AND THEY HAVE POSED

934
19:36:19,179 --> 19:36:22,082
RAIL FENCE, AND YOU SEE EXACTLY

935
19:36:24,084 --> 19:36:25,752
DRESSED.

936
19:36:26,753 --> 19:36:29,323
ATTITUDE TOWARD THE CAMERA

937
19:36:29,823 --> 19:36:32,292
AND ONE OF THEM HAS HIS ARMS

938
19:36:35,062 --> 19:36:37,197
PICTURE MADE, BUT HE'S

939
19:36:40,133 --> 19:36:41,802
HE IS.

940
19:36:43,437 --> 19:36:45,672
PICTURE THAT DRAWS ME STRONGLY

941
19:36:45,739 --> 19:36:47,741
AS AN IMAGE OF THE WAR.

942
19:36:56,984 --> 19:37:00,354
APPROACHING THE BATTLES BECAUSE
>> I THINK THE HARDEST PART WAS

943
19:37:00,420 --> 19:37:03,223
STORY OF THE WAR, AND ALL OF THE

944
19:37:03,857 --> 19:37:06,660
THE BATTLES BEGAN OR AFTER THE

945
19:37:07,461 --> 19:37:09,596
SO ALL YOU HAD WAS EMPTY

946
19:37:10,297 --> 19:37:11,965
BODIES.

947
19:37:12,566 --> 19:37:15,469
NEW--IT WAS ONLY 22 YEARS OLD AT

948
19:37:16,403 --> 19:37:19,239
BROKE OUT--THE LENSES WERE SLOW,

949
19:37:19,306 --> 19:37:22,209
WERE CUMBERSOME, AND SO DURING

950
19:37:22,976 --> 19:37:25,312
DIFFICULT TO TAKE A CAMERA OUT

951
19:37:25,379 --> 19:37:28,348
ACTION SCENES, AND SO THAT WAS

952
19:37:28,415 --> 19:37:31,084
AND THE WAY THAT WE SOLVED THE

953
19:37:34,288 --> 19:37:37,157
PROBLEM WAS WITH SOUND EFFECTS.
(man shouts orders)

954
19:37:37,224 --> 19:37:40,127
WE DISCOVERED THAT IF WE BUILT A

955
19:37:42,429 --> 19:37:45,332
OF GUNSHOTS AND CANNONS AND MEN

956
19:37:45,933 --> 19:37:48,168
PUT THOSE OVER THE EMPTY

957
19:37:48,702 --> 19:37:51,605
THE DEAD, THE AUDIENCE STARTED

958
19:37:53,173 --> 19:37:55,375
HAPPENING AND TAKING PLACE.

959
19:37:55,442 --> 19:37:58,245
>> "THE BALLS WERE WHIZZING SO

960
19:37:59,379 --> 19:38:02,282
"THAT IT LOOKED LIKE A MAN COULD

961
19:38:02,683 --> 19:38:04,251
HOLD OUT A HAT AND CATCH IT
FULL."

962
19:38:04,318 --> 19:38:06,787
>> I WAS WITHIN A FEW FEET OF

THE WOUND BY WHICH HE LOST HIS

19:38:12,326 --> 19:38:15,229
A TERRIFIC EXPLOSION SEEMED TO

965
19:38:16,263 --> 19:38:18,265
FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER.

966
19:38:20,300 --> 19:38:22,970
DRAWERS AT THE KNEE WERE TORN

967
19:38:23,770 --> 19:38:25,439
SWINGING LOOSE.

968
19:38:27,241 --> 19:38:29,476
COOLLY SMOKING A CIGAR.

969
19:38:33,647 --> 19:38:36,550
HELP MAKE THIS, YOU KNOW, ONCE-

970
19:38:37,184 --> 19:38:40,187
JUST AN ENERGETIC AND EXPLORING

SOUND EFFECTS TRACK, BY PERIOD

972
19:38:45,659 --> 19:38:48,362
THAT THEY PLAYED AT THE TIME,

973
19:38:48,428 --> 19:38:50,230
PLAYED AT THE TIME.

1302
19:57:33,921 --> 19:57:36,723
THERE IS NO OTHER DIVIDING LINE

1303
19:57:36,790 --> 19:57:39,693
FROM NORTH AND SOUTH TO MARK THE

1304
19:57:41,595 --> 19:57:43,263
ARMAGEDDON.

1305
19:57:45,199 --> 19:57:46,867
>> HELLO.

1306
19:57:47,134 --> 19:57:48,936
>> HEY.

1307
19:57:49,002 --> 19:57:51,805
>> GLAD TO SEE YOU.
(laughter)

1308
19:57:52,973 --> 19:57:55,309
>> THAT'S THE REBEL YELL.

1309
19:57:59,947 --> 19:58:02,950
>> SOLDIERS ALWAYS, EVEN ACROSS

1310
19:58:04,751 --> 19:58:06,553
THEIR SIMILARITY.

1311
19:58:08,722 --> 19:58:10,858
HUMAN BEINGS HAVEN'T.

1312
19:58:11,291 --> 19:58:14,194
CALLED IT "SEEING THE ELEPHANT."

1313
19:58:14,261 --> 19:58:17,064
FROM LOSING YOUR VIRGINITY OR

1314
19:58:18,198 --> 19:58:22,369
OTHER WONDERFUL RITES OF PASSAGE
BEING A PARENT OR ANY OF THE

1315
19:58:22,436 --> 19:58:24,872
IN COMBAT IS SOMETHING ELSE,
OF OUR LIVES.

1316
19:58:24,938 --> 19:58:27,608
JUST TO THE CIVIL WAR, SECOND

1317
19:58:28,008 --> 19:58:30,811
BECAUSE WE UNDERSTAND THAT AS

1318
19:58:31,612 --> 19:58:34,748
TO CONSTANTLY REMIND PEOPLE THAT

1319
19:58:35,015 --> 19:58:37,150
OBLIGATED TO GO INTO IT

1320
19:58:38,151 --> 19:58:40,821
BEST MANIFESTATION OF HUMAN

1321
19:58:41,522 --> 19:58:44,191
COURAGE--BUT NOT TO DISMISS

1322
19:58:45,559 --> 19:58:48,228
AT A LEVEL THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE

1323
19:58:49,530 --> 19:58:52,332
COMPREHEND IN OUR DAY-TO-DAY

1324
19:58:52,966 --> 19:58:55,869
LIVES.
(gunfire and shouting)

1325
19:59:02,042 --> 19:59:03,477
MINUTES AGES.

1326
19:59:03,544 --> 19:59:06,013
MEN FIRE INTO EACH OTHER'S

1327
19:59:07,948 --> 19:59:11,084
THERE ARE BAYONET THRUSTS, SABER

1328
19:59:12,519 --> 19:59:15,322
DOWN ON THEIR HANDS AND KNEES,

1329
19:59:16,924 --> 19:59:20,060
THROWING OUT THEIR ARMS, GULPING

1330
19:59:20,594 --> 19:59:22,496
ARMLESS, HEADLESS.

1331
19:59:29,870 --> 19:59:32,439
SEEING THE ELEPHANT, AS KEN

1332
19:59:33,507 --> 19:59:35,175
GETTYSBURG.

1333
19:59:36,910 --> 19:59:39,813
AMERICAN HISTORY IN WHICH MORE

1334
19:59:40,247 --> 19:59:42,583
>> ALMOST A THIRD OF THOSE

1335
19:59:45,052 --> 19:59:47,521
THE NORTH SUFFERED 23,000

1336
19:59:53,594 --> 19:59:55,395
THE SOUTH, 28,000.

1337
20:00:00,133 --> 20:00:02,803
GETTYSBURG NOW HAD TEN TIMES

1338
20:00:04,905 --> 20:00:06,573
MEN TO CARE FOR.

1339
20:00:08,742 --> 20:00:10,410
HOSPITAL.

1340
20:00:10,811 --> 20:00:13,380
HAVE BOOKS LINED WITH BLOOD

1341
20:00:13,914 --> 20:00:17,050
PILLOWS, PETTICOATS THAT SOAKED

1342
20:00:17,784 --> 20:00:19,453
ON THE FLOOR.

1343
20:00:20,254 --> 20:00:23,156
>> GETTYSBURG WAS THE PRICE THE

1344
20:00:25,459 --> 20:00:28,128
THAT WAS THE MISTAKE HE MADE,

1345
20:00:32,599 --> 20:00:35,269
THE MISTAKE OF ALL MISTAKES.

1346
20:00:43,343 --> 20:00:45,812
OFTEN CONSIDERED TO BE THE

1347
20:00:46,713 --> 20:00:49,283
FOR THREE DAYS, 150,000 MEN

PENNSYLVANIA COUNTRYSIDE,

1349
20:00:56,590 --> 20:00:58,926
LEGENDARY CHARGE AND THE

YET THE WAR WOULDN'T END FOR

1351
20:01:04,364 --> 20:01:06,600
MORE BATTLES AND TENS OF

1352
20:01:08,101 --> 20:01:10,671
THE BATTLE OF SPOTSYLVANIA

1353
20:01:12,940 --> 20:01:15,509
THE BATTLE OF COLD HARBOR--

1354
20:01:19,313 --> 20:01:24,151
15,500 CASUALTIES.
THE BATTLE OF CEDAR CREEK--

1355
20:01:24,218 --> 20:01:26,887
AND THEN THE FINAL BATTLE AND

1356
20:01:30,824 --> 20:01:32,492
COURTHOUSE.

1357
20:01:35,929 --> 20:01:38,732
LEE ORDERED GORDON TO MAKE ONE

1358
20:01:40,534 --> 20:01:43,670
AT DAWN, JUST OUTSIDE APPOMATTOX

1359
20:01:45,739 --> 20:01:48,308
FEDERAL CAVALRY FROM THEIR

1360
20:01:49,042 --> 20:01:50,844
THE CREST OF A HILL.

1361
20:01:53,814 --> 20:01:56,817
WAS ADVANCING, THE ENTIRE UNION

1362
20:01:58,986 --> 20:02:01,788
>> THERE IS NOTHING LEFT FOR ME

1363
20:02:04,925 --> 20:02:06,593
GRANT.

1364
20:02:08,662 --> 20:02:10,330
THOUSAND DEATHS.

1365
20:02:13,667 --> 20:02:16,470
ONE OF THE MAIN IMPORTANCES OF

1366
20:02:18,805 --> 20:02:21,608
A SENSE OF DEFEAT WHICH NONE OF

1367
20:02:26,113 --> 20:02:28,248
YOU'LL SEE IN THE MOVIE

1368
20:02:29,516 --> 20:02:32,519
PATTON IS SAYING, "WE AMERICANS

1369
20:02:32,786 --> 20:02:35,923
IT'S RATHER AN AMAZING STATEMENT

1370
20:02:36,290 --> 20:02:39,259
BECAUSE PATTON'S GRANDFATHER

1371
20:02:39,326 --> 20:02:42,329
VIRGINIA, AND HE CERTAINLY LOST

1372
20:02:42,963 --> 20:02:45,866
>> APPOMATTOX IS ONE OF THE MOST

1373
20:02:47,601 --> 20:02:49,403
AMERICAN HISTORY.

1374
20:02:50,304 --> 20:02:52,072
REASONS.

1375
20:02:52,139 --> 20:02:53,774
GRANT.

1376
20:02:53,841 --> 20:02:56,176
MUST HAVE BEEN STUNNING.

1377
20:02:56,910 --> 20:02:59,913
IS WATCHING HIS WORLD DISAPPEAR

1378
20:03:02,649 --> 20:03:05,552
MIDDLE-CLASS STRIVER THAT THE

1379
20:03:08,055 --> 20:03:11,024
IT'S THE CHANGING OF THE GUARD

1380
20:03:11,091 --> 20:03:13,427
SIR WALTER SCOTT IS DEAD.

1381
20:03:15,596 --> 20:03:18,398
WRITTEN, AND IT WILL BE BY MARK

1382
20:03:21,134 --> 20:03:24,037
>> WHAT GENERAL LEE'S FEELINGS

1383
20:03:25,172 --> 20:03:27,841
AS HE WAS A MAN OF MUCH DIGNITY

1384
20:03:29,243 --> 20:03:32,479
FEELINGS WERE ENTIRELY CONCEALED

1385
20:03:32,846 --> 20:03:35,415
BUT MY OWN FEELINGS WERE SAD

1386
20:03:36,650 --> 20:03:39,653
I FELT LIKE ANYTHING RATHER THAN

1387
20:03:40,721 --> 20:03:43,390
FOE WHO HAD FOUGHT SO LONG AND

1388
20:03:44,291 --> 20:03:46,960
MUCH FOR A CAUSE, THOUGH THAT

1389
20:03:49,196 --> 20:03:51,765
WORST FOR WHICH PEOPLE EVER

1390
20:03:52,633 --> 20:03:54,434
>> I THINK IT WAS THE

1391
20:03:55,903 --> 20:03:58,238
FOR EACH OTHER AND FOR THE

1392
20:04:01,942 --> 20:04:04,845
THE NECESSARY INFORMALITY...

1393
20:04:09,316 --> 20:04:12,119
AWFUL MOMENT AND FROM GRANT'S

1394
20:04:15,255 --> 20:04:17,824
AND YET FOR THE TWO OF THEM, A

1395
20:04:19,159 --> 20:04:21,628
IT WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE

1396
20:04:23,297 --> 20:04:26,300
>> THE SIMPLEST THING IS, BEFORE

1397
20:04:28,035 --> 20:04:30,704
OUR COUNTRY, WE WOULD SAY, "THE

1398
20:04:30,771 --> 20:04:33,440
WE SAW OURSELVES AS A UNION, A

1399
20:04:34,541 --> 20:04:37,444
AFTER THE CIVIL WAR, WE STARTED

1400
20:04:37,511 --> 20:04:39,179
THING, AND WE SAY

1401
20:04:40,681 --> 20:04:43,550
UNGRAMMATICALLY, "THE UNITED
STATES IS."

1402
20:04:43,617 --> 20:04:46,086
ELSE, WAS CHANGE US FROM AN

1403
20:04:46,854 --> 20:04:49,857
WAS BASICALLY TRYING TO FIND OUT

1404
20:04:50,724 --> 20:04:52,960
AND IT STARTS THAT DAY IN

1405
20:04:54,528 --> 20:04:56,864
>> THE TWO MEN SHOOK HANDS

1406
20:04:57,564 --> 20:05:00,133
LEE LEFT THE HOUSE, MOUNTED

1407
20:05:01,568 --> 20:05:03,237
TOWARD HIS ARMY.

1408
20:05:07,040 --> 20:05:08,709
CHEER.

1409
20:05:09,443 --> 20:05:12,246
"THE CONFEDERATES ARE NOW OUR

1410
20:05:12,946 --> 20:05:15,415
WE DO NOT WANT TO EXULT OVER

1411
20:05:15,849 --> 20:05:17,518
THE WAR IS OVER.

1412
20:05:20,354 --> 20:05:22,022
AGAIN."

1413
20:05:24,758 --> 20:05:27,761
KILLING WAS OVER, AT LEAST UNTIL

1414
20:05:30,964 --> 20:05:34,101
WHEN PRESIDENT LINCOLN ATTENDED

1415
20:05:36,803 --> 20:05:38,472
THEATER.

1416
20:05:41,341 --> 20:05:44,144
AT A NEARBY BAR, THEN RETURNED

1417
20:05:45,145 --> 20:05:47,814
HE WAITED FOR THE LAUGHTER TO

1418
20:05:48,815 --> 20:05:50,817
THE PRESIDENT'S BOX.

1419
20:05:54,054 --> 20:05:56,957
HAND, A DERRINGER PISTOL IN HIS

1420
20:05:58,492 --> 20:06:01,161
>> WHEN WE WERE MIXING THE FILM

1421
20:06:01,228 --> 20:06:04,231
LINCOLN'S ASSASSINATION--AND

1422
20:06:05,065 --> 20:06:09,303
ACROSS FORD'S THEATER TO THE BOX
THERE'S THIS VERY SLOW ZOOM IN

1423
20:06:09,369 --> 20:06:10,704
SITTING IN.
THAT LINCOLN AND MARY WERE

1424
20:06:10,771 --> 20:06:12,706
NARRATION, WE LAID DOWN THE

1425
20:06:12,773 --> 20:06:15,776
BACKGROUND NOISES OF A COUGH AND

1426
20:06:16,076 --> 20:06:19,079
THIS TINNY-SOUNDING VICTORIAN

1427
20:06:20,714 --> 20:06:23,283
YOU KNOW, "AUGUSTA, DEAR, BE

1428
20:06:23,350 --> 20:06:25,252
AND DONE ALL OF THAT.

1429
20:06:27,287 --> 20:06:30,424
AND THEN SOMEBODY TURNED AROUND,

1430
20:06:31,391 --> 20:06:34,294
AND I REALIZED WHAT THIS MOMENT

1431
20:06:35,262 --> 20:06:38,265
AND LEE PRESSED THE BUTTON STOP,

1432
20:06:38,565 --> 20:06:41,134
TO A STOP JUST THE FRAME OR SO

1433
20:06:42,135 --> 20:06:44,705
JUST AS THE "MM" OF THE SHOTS

1434
20:06:46,206 --> 20:06:47,875
SOUND.

1435
20:06:48,842 --> 20:06:51,645
HIM, AND I LOOKED UP AT HIM, AND

1436
20:06:51,912 --> 20:06:53,580
WAIT A MINUTE.

1437
20:06:54,014 --> 20:06:55,682
LINCOLN YET.

1438
20:06:56,283 --> 20:06:59,887
LET'S JUST LET HIM LIVE FOR A
FEW SECONDS LONGER."

1439
20:06:59,953 --> 20:07:02,789
UP, THEN HE JUST STOPPED FOR A

1440
20:07:02,856 --> 20:07:04,525
LET'S CONTINUE."

1441
20:07:05,025 --> 20:07:07,828
HISTORY ALIVE HERE AGAIN," HE

1442
20:07:08,562 --> 20:07:10,230
CAN'T CHANGE IT."

1443
20:07:12,199 --> 20:07:15,869
(gunshot)
(slow drum and fife playing)

1444
20:07:19,072 --> 20:07:21,875
MUCH OF WHO WE BELIEVE WE ARE IS

1445
20:07:23,810 --> 20:07:26,713
SACRIFICE OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

1446
20:07:27,181 --> 20:07:29,750
AND TRUTH AND GOOD HUMOR AND

1447
20:07:33,554 --> 20:07:36,223
FEEL HIS LOSS WHEN HE IS TAKEN

1448
20:07:38,292 --> 20:07:40,093
GREATEST TRIUMPH.

1449
20:07:49,736 --> 20:07:52,439
WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO PUT FOR

1450
20:07:52,506 --> 20:07:55,075
FOURSCORE AND SEVEN YEARS.

1451
20:07:56,310 --> 20:07:59,046
MOMENT OF THE DECLARATION OF

1452
20:07:59,112 --> 20:08:00,781
THAT WAS OUR 1.0.

1453
20:08:02,115 --> 20:08:04,685
FOR THAT LONG, BUT IT HADN'T

1454
20:08:05,385 --> 20:08:07,888
THE GUY WHO WROTE IT, THOMAS

1455
20:08:07,955 --> 20:08:10,557
THAT ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL,

1456
20:08:10,624 --> 20:08:13,093
"AND NOW WE ARE ENGAGED IN A

1457
20:08:13,894 --> 20:08:16,029
SAID, "BECAUSE OF THAT

1458
20:08:16,630 --> 20:08:18,966
HYPOCRISY, BECAUSE MOST

20:08:19,466 --> 20:08:22,369
TRY TO DEAL WITH THE MONUMENTAL

1460
20:08:23,203 --> 20:08:26,206
THE COUNTRY GOES BRAGGING TO THE

1461
20:08:27,541 --> 20:08:30,744
WHOLE WORLD ABOUT HUMAN
LIBERTIES AND HUMAN RIGHTS."

1462
20:08:30,811 --> 20:08:33,146
BASICALLY REDEFINES US.

what PBS can do to inspire

20:14:08,382 --> 20:14:10,617
something new. Or maybe

1552
20:14:11,785 --> 20:14:13,554
watching something that

contemplative mood. So now

1560
20:14:34,541 --> 20:14:37,010
time. Think about the time

1561
20:14:38,111 --> 20:14:40,681
make one of these programs.

1562
20:14:41,915 --> 20:14:44,151

Friends of
Wisconsin Public Television;

1793
20:31:28,989 --> 20:31:31,191
and the Wisconsin History Fund,

1794
20:31:31,258 --> 20:31:32,459
supported in part

1795
20:31:32,526 --> 20:31:36,797
by the National Endowment
for the Humanities.

1796
20:31:36,864 --> 20:31:38,532
?

1797
20:31:39,867 --> 20:31:43,770
- As seen from space,
Wisconsin's thumb of land,

1798
20:31:43,837 --> 20:31:45,205
Door County,

1799
20:31:45,272 --> 20:31:48,742
juts out between
Lake Michigan and Green Bay,

1800
20:31:48,809 --> 20:31:53,914
part of a rock formation
called the Niagara Escarpment.

1801
20:31:53,981 --> 20:31:55,482
- The Niagara Escarpment is

1802
20:31:55,549 --> 20:31:59,219
about a 1,000-mile long
ridge of rock that runs

1803
20:31:59,286 --> 20:32:00,487
through Door County,

1804
20:32:00,554 --> 20:32:02,856
all the way up into the
Upper Peninsula of Michigan,

1805
20:32:02,923 --> 20:32:07,828
into Ontario, Canada,
and ends around Niagara Falls.

1806
20:32:07,895 --> 20:32:11,498
It's actually the rock
that Niagara Falls flows over.

1807
20:32:11,565 --> 20:32:14,201
And if you look
at the rocks here,

1808
20:32:14,268 --> 20:32:17,004
you'll see there are
these really beautiful,

1809
20:32:17,070 --> 20:32:20,841
tall cliffs on the western
side of the peninsula.

1810
20:32:20,908 --> 20:32:22,743
The cliff is called
an escarpment

1811
20:32:22,809 --> 20:32:26,280
because it's
a steep vertical cliff.

1812
20:32:27,814 --> 20:32:30,717
- Glaciers formed
the peninsula of Door County

1813
20:32:30,784 --> 20:32:33,020
during the last ice age.

1814
20:32:33,987 --> 20:32:36,089
- When the ice hit
that ridge of rock,

1815
20:32:36,156 --> 20:32:39,626
it actually split it
into two different lobes

1816
20:32:39,693 --> 20:32:44,431
that then actually carved out
Lake Michigan and Green Bay

1817
20:32:44,498 --> 20:32:47,835
because of the
Niagara Escarpment.

1818
20:32:49,336 --> 20:32:51,205
- As the glaciers retreated,

1819
20:32:51,271 --> 20:32:53,707
Paleo-Indians
arrived in the area

1820
20:32:53,774 --> 20:32:58,378
now known as Sturgeon Bay,
and set up camp sites.

1821
20:32:58,445 --> 20:33:02,783
Here, archeologists found spear
points and stone tools,

1822
20:33:02,850 --> 20:33:08,555
used over 10,000 years ago
to hunt and process large game.

1823
20:33:11,191 --> 20:33:14,628
Archaeologists also found
evidence throughout the county

1824
20:33:14,695 --> 20:33:16,663
of many groups and tribes,

1825
20:33:16,730 --> 20:33:18,932
drawn for thousands of years,

1826
20:33:18,999 --> 20:33:24,137
to the rich hunting and fishing
grounds of Door County.

1827
20:33:25,472 --> 20:33:28,242
Many of the early
European settlers

1828
20:33:28,308 --> 20:33:31,478
came to the remote islands
north of the peninsula,

1829
20:33:31,545 --> 20:33:35,449
taking advantage of waters
teeming with fish.

1830
20:33:37,417 --> 20:33:42,122
- By 1860, there was close
to 200 people on Rock Island,

1831
20:33:42,189 --> 20:33:44,191
200 on St. Martin's.

1832
20:33:44,258 --> 20:33:47,327
And, of course, the boats
were double-enders,

1833
20:33:47,394 --> 20:33:49,630
wooden boats, Mackinaw boats.

1834
20:33:49,696 --> 20:33:50,797
They were light boats,

1835
20:33:50,864 --> 20:33:52,833
a lot of them were
made of cedar,

1836
20:33:52,900 --> 20:33:54,434
so with a man on each side,

1837
20:33:54,501 --> 20:33:57,804
you could pull them right up
on any beach, any gravel beach.

1838
20:33:57,871 --> 20:34:01,675
And you didn't need a dock,
and that was important,

1839
20:34:01,742 --> 20:34:04,211
because you wanted to
be close to your fishery.

1840
20:34:04,278 --> 20:34:08,949
After all, you either rowed
or you sailed, not easy.

1841
20:34:09,016 --> 20:34:11,752
And especially
if there wasn't much wind,

1842
20:34:11,818 --> 20:34:13,787
then you rowed, period.

1843
20:34:13,854 --> 20:34:15,322
Of course,
with the Mackinaw boats,

1844
20:34:15,389 --> 20:34:18,292
everything was done by hand,
you pulled the nets by hand.

1845
20:34:18,358 --> 20:34:20,627
Deadly work, you know.

1846
20:34:20,694 --> 20:34:22,462
But that's the history
of the fishery.

1847
20:34:22,529 --> 20:34:26,200
There was an awful lot
of hard work in it.

1848
20:34:26,834 --> 20:34:30,003
- Asa Thorp, after a season
of making barrels

1849
20:34:30,070 --> 20:34:32,372
for the fishermen
on Rock Island,

1850
20:34:32,439 --> 20:34:36,276
boarded a steamer
bound for Green Bay.

1851
20:34:36,343 --> 20:34:39,379
- And the captain was sort of
telling him his woes

1852
20:34:39,446 --> 20:34:42,983
about how difficult it is
to run this side of the bay.

1853
20:34:43,050 --> 20:34:44,785
There were no villages,
there were no docks.

1854
20:34:44,852 --> 20:34:49,523
So they would have to anchor,
send the men into the shore

1855
20:34:49,590 --> 20:34:53,660
and collect driftwood
to burn for the steamers.

1856
20:34:53,727 --> 20:34:56,430
And the captain said,
"If a guy were smart,

1857
20:34:56,496 --> 20:34:59,299
this is where he'd put a dock."

1858
20:35:00,167 --> 20:35:02,870
- Thorp took the advice,
and built a dock,

1859
20:35:02,936 --> 20:35:06,039
and eventually a sawmill,
at Fish Creek,

1860
20:35:06,106 --> 20:35:08,842
to take part in the harvest
of the heavy forest

1861
20:35:08,909 --> 20:35:11,378
that covered Door County.

1862
20:35:13,714 --> 20:35:18,151
- Very, very deep forest;
very mature forest.

1863
20:35:18,218 --> 20:35:22,022
North, was largely pine;
very good pine.

1864
20:35:22,756 --> 20:35:27,027
And then they had hemlocks
along on the sandy shores.

1865
20:35:27,094 --> 20:35:28,829
And in the swamps,

1866
20:35:28,896 --> 20:35:30,697
they had the cedar.

1867
20:35:31,431 --> 20:35:36,336
And then, they also had
maple and birch and tamarack.

1868
20:35:36,403 --> 20:35:39,740
A person would buy
maybe 2,000 acres

1869
20:35:40,941 --> 20:35:44,711
and they would get a sawmill
into the area.

1870
20:35:44,778 --> 20:35:47,781
And the peninsula of Door County

1871
20:35:48,282 --> 20:35:51,451
doesn't have
any navigable streams,

1872
20:35:51,518 --> 20:35:56,223
so all the logs had to be
transported to the shore.

1873
20:35:56,290 --> 20:35:59,526
And around the area
of Door County,

1874
20:36:01,128 --> 20:36:04,031
at one time,
there were 60 docks

1875
20:36:05,165 --> 20:36:08,068
and there were
about 66 sawmills.

1876
20:36:09,703 --> 20:36:12,239
- Using the variety
of local woods,

1877
20:36:12,306 --> 20:36:14,942
local shipbuilders
built schooners

1878
20:36:15,008 --> 20:36:17,811
to carry the lumber to market.

1879
20:36:18,579 --> 20:36:22,182
Many of the boats traveled
around the tip of the peninsula,

1880
20:36:22,249 --> 20:36:23,984
through Death's Door,

1881
20:36:24,051 --> 20:36:28,822
the treacherous passage
that gave the county its name.

1882
20:36:28,889 --> 20:36:30,624
- When you were
going to Chicago,

1883
20:36:30,691 --> 20:36:33,193
if you could go through
Death's Door,

1884
20:36:33,260 --> 20:36:36,330
instead of coming up to
the Rock Island passage,

1885
20:36:36,396 --> 20:36:39,132
you might save a day of sailing.

1886
20:36:39,199 --> 20:36:42,603
And, of course,
a lot of these skippers

1887
20:36:42,669 --> 20:36:45,506
had great confidence
in their own ability.

1888
20:36:45,572 --> 20:36:48,041
And it didn't always
work out so well,

1889
20:36:48,108 --> 20:36:51,345
because that's
a very treacherous water.

1890
20:36:51,411 --> 20:36:53,180
When you get strong winds,

1891
20:36:53,247 --> 20:36:54,915
quite often

1892
20:36:54,982 --> 20:36:58,919
the current is into the wind
very strong,

1893
20:36:58,986 --> 20:37:00,487
and you can't see it.

1894
20:37:00,554 --> 20:37:02,322
When you get
into the middle of that

1895
20:37:02,389 --> 20:37:03,824
and you've got all your sail up

1896
20:37:03,891 --> 20:37:07,127
and you're not going ahead,
you're in big trouble.

1897
20:37:07,194 --> 20:37:09,763
Big ships, 150-footers...

1898
20:37:10,631 --> 20:37:14,268
<i>The Resumption</i> went aground
on Plum Island.

1899
20:37:14,334 --> 20:37:16,170
Beautiful big ships, you know.

1900
20:37:16,236 --> 20:37:19,139
There were three of them
went aground on Pilot Island

1901
20:37:19,206 --> 20:37:22,142
within a couple weeks
in one fall.

1902
20:37:22,209 --> 20:37:25,345
So there are
dozens of shipwrecks

1903
20:37:25,879 --> 20:37:28,515
on that Death's Door passage.

1904
20:37:30,417 --> 20:37:32,553
- As the loggers moved on,

1905
20:37:32,619 --> 20:37:37,324
families began to settle
onto the land, and build farms.

1906
20:37:37,391 --> 20:37:38,825
- And it was a tough go.

1907
20:37:38,892 --> 20:37:43,697
The hardships are beyond
our imagination, really.

1908
20:37:43,764 --> 20:37:47,034
There were places they could get
enough topsoil to plant crops,

1909
20:37:47,100 --> 20:37:49,770
and they did-- there was quite
a bit of farming up here.

1910
20:37:49,837 --> 20:37:51,638
But it was a tough
kind of farming.

1911
20:37:51,705 --> 20:37:53,640
- First, they had to
clear the land,

1912
20:37:53,707 --> 20:37:56,043
and then pull the stumps,

1913
20:37:57,544 --> 20:38:02,449
and a huge, labor-intensive--
Terrible, you know.

1914
20:38:02,516 --> 20:38:04,585
And then when they put
the plow in the ground,

1915
20:38:04,651 --> 20:38:06,253
all they got was rocks.

1916
20:38:06,320 --> 20:38:07,921
(laughing)

1917
20:38:07,988 --> 20:38:11,258
- So if you drive through the
county, in almost any village,

1918
20:38:11,325 --> 20:38:15,829
you will see beautiful,
constructed stone fences,

1919
20:38:15,896 --> 20:38:19,233
and thrown-together
stone fences.

1920
20:38:20,133 --> 20:38:21,535
- Those are symbols

1921
20:38:21,602 --> 20:38:24,071
of hard-gained cropland.

1922
20:38:27,674 --> 20:38:29,309
- As farms developed,

1923
20:38:29,376 --> 20:38:32,412
villages grew up
around the loading docks.

1924
20:38:32,479 --> 20:38:35,849
The settlers built schools,
and churches,

1925
20:38:35,916 --> 20:38:40,220
and endured long,
and often brutal, winters.

1926
20:38:40,287 --> 20:38:41,889
- A lot of disease.

1927
20:38:41,955 --> 20:38:43,223
A lot of them died of

1928
20:38:43,290 --> 20:38:47,094
whooping cough, tuberculosis,
plague.

1929
20:38:47,694 --> 20:38:51,765
But we owe them a tremendous
debt of gratitude,

1930
20:38:51,832 --> 20:38:55,536
and we cannot appreciate
what they went through

1931
20:38:55,602 --> 20:38:57,504
to settle this area.

1932
20:39:01,542 --> 20:39:03,210
(fiddle music)

1933
20:39:08,315 --> 20:39:10,384
- This is our
great grandpa and grandma.

1934
20:39:10,450 --> 20:39:11,718
Francois.

1935
20:39:11,785 --> 20:39:14,488
That's "Francis" of course,
but... Francois Evrard.

1936
20:39:14,555 --> 20:39:17,224
And her name was
Florentine Patris.

1937
20:39:17,291 --> 20:39:19,059
- In 1853,

1938
20:39:19,126 --> 20:39:21,962
the first of thousands
of Belgian immigrants

1939
20:39:22,029 --> 20:39:23,297
began to settle

1940
20:39:23,363 --> 20:39:27,434
in southern Door, Brown,
and Kewaunee counties.

1941
20:39:27,501 --> 20:39:29,102
- And they created

1942
20:39:29,169 --> 20:39:30,838
an ethnic island,

1943
20:39:31,205 --> 20:39:34,107
here in northeast Wisconsin.

1944
20:39:34,174 --> 20:39:36,410
- They were persuaded to settle
in the area

1945
20:39:36,476 --> 20:39:38,478
by Father Edward Daems,

1946
20:39:38,545 --> 20:39:41,715
a Catholic priest
who spoke the Belgian language

1947
20:39:41,782 --> 20:39:43,050
of Walloon.

1948
20:39:43,116 --> 20:39:46,420
- The reason that
they all came here
was the language.

1949
20:39:46,486 --> 20:39:48,388
It was a cultural element

1950
20:39:48,455 --> 20:39:50,557
that made it so appealing.

1951
20:39:50,624 --> 20:39:52,593
(speaking in Walloon)

1952
20:40:08,275 --> 20:40:11,445
- Grandma only talked Walloon,
so I still talked with her,

1953
20:40:11,512 --> 20:40:13,347
and I'm glad I did.

1954
20:40:13,413 --> 20:40:15,315
And my mother and I
talked Walloon.

1955
20:40:15,382 --> 20:40:16,650
The day she died,

1956
20:40:16,717 --> 20:40:18,552
we still had
a conversation in Walloon.

1957
20:40:18,619 --> 20:40:22,956
- The land had not been settled
for good reason.

1958
20:40:23,857 --> 20:40:26,326
It was heavily forested,

1959
20:40:26,393 --> 20:40:31,398
and it was just
a very difficult place
to make a living.

1960
20:40:31,465 --> 20:40:33,667
But they persevered.

1961
20:40:33,734 --> 20:40:35,903
(speaking in Walloon)

1962
20:41:09,670 --> 20:41:12,339
- As the Belgians
cleared their land,

1963
20:41:12,406 --> 20:41:14,808
they also produced
wooden shingles

1964
20:41:14,875 --> 20:41:17,411
to bring in much-needed cash,

1965
20:41:17,477 --> 20:41:20,981
and built a dock
to transport goods.

1966
20:41:21,048 --> 20:41:22,816
- Years ago, there was a boat

1967
20:41:22,883 --> 20:41:24,651
by the name of the <i>Dennessen</i> .

1968
20:41:24,718 --> 20:41:26,687
And they'd take their shingles

1969
20:41:26,753 --> 20:41:29,356
and a cow, or anything they had,
to haul it.

1970
20:41:29,423 --> 20:41:30,891
They'd take it
down to Green Bay.

1971
20:41:30,958 --> 20:41:32,192
They'd put it on the boat,

1972
20:41:32,259 --> 20:41:33,794
and then the people,

1973
20:41:33,861 --> 20:41:36,730
some people want to come visit
their relatives up here.

1974
20:41:36,797 --> 20:41:39,366
They'd take the boat
and they'd go down over there,

1975
20:41:39,433 --> 20:41:41,401
and then, vice versa.

1976
20:41:42,569 --> 20:41:44,238
(fire roaring)

1977
20:41:44,705 --> 20:41:46,373
- In 1871,

1978
20:41:47,140 --> 20:41:49,910
on the same night
as the Chicago Fire,

1979
20:41:49,977 --> 20:41:54,114
the Great Peshtigo Fire swept up
both sides of Green Bay.

1980
20:41:54,181 --> 20:41:56,650
A dry forest and high winds

1981
20:41:57,251 --> 20:42:00,187
whipped small fires
into an inferno,

1982
20:42:00,254 --> 20:42:02,990
that spread through
the Belgian community.

1983
20:42:03,056 --> 20:42:04,791
(horse whinnying frantically)

1984
20:42:04,858 --> 20:42:08,095
- Wind came up and ignited
all of these small fires

1985
20:42:08,161 --> 20:42:09,763
to become one big fire,

1986
20:42:09,830 --> 20:42:12,799
and it just kept
growing and growing,

1987
20:42:12,866 --> 20:42:15,903
and it was like
a tornado of fire.

1988
20:42:15,969 --> 20:42:17,638
(fire roaring)

1989
20:42:18,238 --> 20:42:20,807
- My great grandfather
and great grandmother

1990
20:42:20,874 --> 20:42:22,776
grabbed woolen blankets,

1991
20:42:22,843 --> 20:42:25,045
and they were going
down into the well.

1992
20:42:25,112 --> 20:42:28,115
And the fire went over them
and on the side of them.

1993
20:42:28,182 --> 20:42:30,684
And they came out of the well,

1994
20:42:30,751 --> 20:42:32,052
and said they looked around,

1995
20:42:32,119 --> 20:42:34,855
and all they could see
was burned land.

1996
20:42:34,922 --> 20:42:36,456
There was nothing--

1997
20:42:36,523 --> 20:42:41,995
There was nothing left of what
they had worked so hard to do.

1998
20:42:44,731 --> 20:42:48,235
- With many killed,
and hundreds homeless,

1999
20:42:48,302 --> 20:42:51,605
the Belgians slowly began
to rebuild their farms

2000
20:42:51,672 --> 20:42:54,842
on the rocky, burned over land,

2001
20:42:54,908 --> 20:42:58,846
and made the most
of the resources that were left.

2002
20:42:58,912 --> 20:43:00,914
- Now any forest fire:

2003
20:43:00,981 --> 20:43:05,552
it will destroy the foliage,
it will char the bark,

2004
20:43:05,619 --> 20:43:08,322
but it won't consume the tree.

2005
20:43:08,388 --> 20:43:13,260
And so the Belgians
spent winters rescuing timber.

2006
20:43:13,327 --> 20:43:16,330
And then, a building boom
took place here.

2007
20:43:16,396 --> 20:43:18,398
Those are log houses.

2008
20:43:19,266 --> 20:43:23,704
They covered them
with locally-made brick.

2009
20:43:23,770 --> 20:43:25,572
Now, we don't have to
go to Quebec,

2010
20:43:25,639 --> 20:43:27,241
or we don't have to
go to Europe

2011
20:43:27,307 --> 20:43:31,178
to see classic examples
of folk architecture.

2012
20:43:31,245 --> 20:43:33,847
It's right here
in northeast Wisconsin.

2013
20:43:33,914 --> 20:43:35,582
?

2014
20:43:38,852 --> 20:43:40,821
- There are small little chapels

2015
20:43:40,888 --> 20:43:43,423
dotted along
the Belgian countryside here.

2016
20:43:43,490 --> 20:43:47,895
It is a practice that was
brought from the old country.

2017
20:43:47,961 --> 20:43:50,030
- The chapels,
in their interior,

2018
20:43:50,097 --> 20:43:52,766
have some characteristics.

2019
20:43:53,166 --> 20:43:56,837
A alter at the end of
the very small room,

2020
20:43:57,304 --> 20:44:01,308
and then a number of
artifacts on the alter.

2021
20:44:03,544 --> 20:44:05,212
Tremendous symmetry.

2022
20:44:05,279 --> 20:44:07,414
They were an important part

2023
20:44:07,481 --> 20:44:10,317
of the religious fabric
of the area.

2024
20:44:10,384 --> 20:44:13,520
The Belgians are very religious.

2025
20:44:14,188 --> 20:44:18,091
A lot of the life then
and a lot of life today

2026
20:44:18,625 --> 20:44:22,062
revolves around
the local parishes.

2027
20:44:22,129 --> 20:44:23,597
- I lived right next door,

2028
20:44:23,664 --> 20:44:26,567
so I'd have to come to church...

2029
20:44:27,434 --> 20:44:28,769
...a lot.

2030
20:44:28,836 --> 20:44:31,171
They'd send me: "Oh, you'd
better go to church today."

2031
20:44:31,238 --> 20:44:33,774
"It's a good day for you
to go to church, or..."

2032
20:44:33,841 --> 20:44:35,809
- We were all Catholic.

2033
20:44:35,876 --> 20:44:37,911
The Lutheran-- You didn't--
You didn't marry a Luth--

2034
20:44:37,978 --> 20:44:39,413
outside your religion.

2035
20:44:39,479 --> 20:44:41,415
I know when I was
in high school,

2036
20:44:41,481 --> 20:44:43,784
my mother didn't even want me
to have a friend

2037
20:44:43,851 --> 20:44:45,986
that was not Catholic.

2038
20:44:47,154 --> 20:44:49,256
As Wisconsinites, we know

2039
20:44:49,323 --> 20:44:51,592
that we have a plethora

2040
20:44:51,658 --> 20:44:53,894
of ethnic islands here.

2041
20:44:54,628 --> 20:44:58,332
But most of them have eroded,
and lost their identity.

2042
20:44:58,398 --> 20:45:00,534
The Belgians have not.

2043
20:45:00,934 --> 20:45:04,238
- I guess the thing
of the people staying together,

2044
20:45:04,304 --> 20:45:06,440
working together,
because they always worked.

2045
20:45:06,507 --> 20:45:08,909
The thrashing crew was made up
of all your neighbors,

2046
20:45:08,976 --> 20:45:10,244
everybody came to help.

2047
20:45:10,310 --> 20:45:11,678
No matter what,

2048
20:45:11,745 --> 20:45:13,780
you always had people to help,
they helped one other.

2049
20:45:13,847 --> 20:45:16,383
- We had a bunch of men
come over with big poles,

2050
20:45:16,450 --> 20:45:18,085
and they put up the barn.

2051
20:45:18,151 --> 20:45:19,820
And that night,

2052
20:45:20,921 --> 20:45:24,091
the rafters are up,
and a big storm came,

2053
20:45:24,157 --> 20:45:25,826
and blew it down.

2054
20:45:26,226 --> 20:45:30,831
And all the neighbors came over
the following day.

2055
20:45:30,898 --> 20:45:33,467
They all pitched in,
took all the boards apart,

2056
20:45:33,534 --> 20:45:34,935
took the nails
out of the boards,

2057
20:45:35,002 --> 20:45:38,005
and two days after,
the barn was back up.

2058
20:45:38,071 --> 20:45:41,308
All the neighbors
came and helped.

2059
20:45:41,708 --> 20:45:43,744
- They worked hard,
they played hard.

2060
20:45:43,810 --> 20:45:45,712
Good times, dances,

2061
20:45:46,180 --> 20:45:48,282
and maybe when there were
weddings or funerals--

2062
20:45:48,348 --> 20:45:51,251
Funerals were big things,
really big things.

2063
20:45:51,318 --> 20:45:53,120
Everyone just seemed to be happy
around here.

2064
20:45:53,187 --> 20:45:55,455
You could visit with people,
and...

2065
20:45:55,522 --> 20:45:58,192
- The ethnic island
that they defined

2066
20:45:58,258 --> 20:46:01,662
within the area
of northeast Wisconsin

2067
20:46:01,728 --> 20:46:03,430
still exists.

2068
20:46:03,497 --> 20:46:07,734
They have retained
their ties with each other

2069
20:46:08,669 --> 20:46:11,672
on this land
for that many years.

2070
20:46:12,739 --> 20:46:15,409
And that's just remarkable.

2071

volunteer here at PBSert, a

come from out of state to

2077
20:46:43,737 --> 20:46:46,507
there's no place quite like

really love about PBS I

2079
20:46:50,310 --> 20:46:52,779

2084
20:47:04,758 --> 20:47:06,994
Wisconsin can do, and it

cherries and the farming of

2101

We'd love to thank you with

20:54:23,363 --> 20:54:25,566

2226
20:54:25,632 --> 20:54:28,101
Hometown Stories is,nsin

2227
20:54:28,769 --> 20:54:31,305
most PBS Wisconsinve about

2228
20:54:31,371 --> 20:54:33,841
your curiosity, right?ks

2229
20:54:34,274 --> 20:54:36,777
maybe you have more moreent,

2230
20:54:36,844 --> 20:54:38,846
before about the Peshtigod

2231
20:54:38,912 --> 20:54:41,248
culture. But it's it's an

2232
20:54:42,549 --> 20:54:45,018
And that's something that

2233
20:54:45,452 --> 20:54:47,788
you know, this this era we

2234
20:54:48,822 --> 20:54:51,391
and YouTube videos, it'sd,

2235
20:54:53,694 --> 20:54:56,163
that, that, that love ofnd

2236
20:54:59,199 --> 20:55:01,668
get on PBS Wisconsin. So if

2237
20:55:02,669 --> 20:55:04,838
you, if you value that, now

2238
20:55:04,905 --> 20:55:07,574
call 1-800-236-3636. Thank

2239
20:55:10,410 --> 20:55:12,079
?
you.

2240
20:55:21,388 --> 20:55:23,056
?

2241
20:55:26,593 --> 20:55:30,631
- In 1872, work began
on clearing the land

2242
20:55:30,697 --> 20:55:32,132
for a canal

2243
20:55:32,199 --> 20:55:36,136
that would connect Sturgeon Bay
with Lake Michigan.

2244
20:55:36,203 --> 20:55:39,473
The canal would
create a big shortcut,

2245
20:55:39,540 --> 20:55:42,409
reducing the need to travel
around the peninsula,

2246
20:55:42,476 --> 20:55:45,546
and through
the Death's Door passage.

2247
20:55:45,612 --> 20:55:49,249
With the canal,
Sturgeon Bay suddenly became

2248
20:55:49,316 --> 20:55:52,986
a busy Lake Michigan
and Green Bay port.

2249
20:55:53,587 --> 20:55:57,191
Schooners would tie together,
and split the towing fee,

2250
20:55:57,257 --> 20:56:00,494
in what became known
as "a big tow."

2251
20:56:01,361 --> 20:56:05,566
The shipbuilding and ship repair
industries expanded,

2252
20:56:05,632 --> 20:56:08,235
and shoreline rock quarries

2253
20:56:08,302 --> 20:56:11,471
now had a direct route
to Lake Michigan markets.

2254
20:56:11,538 --> 20:56:15,642
With easier access,
a new industry, tourism,

2255
20:56:15,709 --> 20:56:18,478
began to take hold
in Sturgeon Bay

2256
20:56:18,545 --> 20:56:21,448
and the Green Bay side
of the peninsula.

2257
20:56:21,515 --> 20:56:24,852
With almost 300 miles
of shoreline,

2258
20:56:25,352 --> 20:56:28,388
much of it considered
worthless for farming,

2259
20:56:28,455 --> 20:56:30,858
it was only a matter of time,

2260
20:56:30,924 --> 20:56:33,393
before tourists
began to discover

2261
20:56:33,460 --> 20:56:37,464
the cool breezes and beauty
of Door County.

2262
20:56:41,635 --> 20:56:44,671
In Fish Creek,
dockmaster Asa Thorp,

2263
20:56:44,738 --> 20:56:46,673
sold fuel to steamboats,

2264
20:56:46,740 --> 20:56:50,410
and also ran
a small boardinghouse.

2265
20:56:50,477 --> 20:56:52,980
- The lumbermen, the salesmen,
anyone that came to the village,

2266
20:56:53,046 --> 20:56:54,414
he would put up.

2267
20:56:54,481 --> 20:56:58,452
And soon, the people
wanted to get off of the ship

2268
20:56:58,519 --> 20:57:00,554
when they came into the village.

2269
20:57:00,621 --> 20:57:02,823
So as they were
taking on new wood,

2270
20:57:02,890 --> 20:57:05,492
they would walk up
and down the streets,

2271
20:57:05,559 --> 20:57:07,394
and people loved
how cool it was,

2272
20:57:07,461 --> 20:57:10,063
and how lovely this little
village, and the air was clean,

2273
20:57:10,130 --> 20:57:11,865
and it felt so good...

2274
20:57:11,932 --> 20:57:14,101
And soon they started asking Asa

2275
20:57:14,168 --> 20:57:16,937
if they couldn't stay
in the boarding house.

2276
20:57:17,004 --> 20:57:21,542
I think he must have been
a very ingenious guy,

2277
20:57:21,608 --> 20:57:23,477
and that's the next thing
he did.

2278
20:57:23,544 --> 20:57:26,013
He built a very fine hotel.

2279
20:57:27,014 --> 20:57:31,451
It just seem that that was the
way the village was going to go,

2280
20:57:31,518 --> 20:57:34,988
and so that the fishing
and lumbering village

2281
20:57:35,055 --> 20:57:38,358
of the late 1800s
quickly became--

2282
20:57:38,425 --> 20:57:42,663
By 1905, 1910,
people were building hotels.

2283
20:57:42,729 --> 20:57:44,731
They were already up.

2284
20:57:45,465 --> 20:57:47,768
- Just to the north,
in Ephraim,

2285
20:57:47,835 --> 20:57:51,205
village residents were amazed
when a ship's passenger

2286
20:57:51,271 --> 20:57:55,576
inquired about staying
in the village overnight.

2287
20:57:55,642 --> 20:57:59,246
- And asked the dockmaster
if there was someplace to stay.

2288
20:57:59,313 --> 20:58:01,648
He was told,
"No, there were no hotels."

2289
20:58:01,715 --> 20:58:04,184
And he suggested that
he might run down

2290
20:58:04,251 --> 20:58:06,086
to the Widow Valentine's house,

2291
20:58:06,153 --> 20:58:08,689
but he better hurry because
the boat was going to leave

2292
20:58:08,755 --> 20:58:10,924
and he'd be stuck
if she said, "No."

2293
20:58:10,991 --> 20:58:13,794
She said, "Yes," and
he stayed for a couple of days.

2294
20:58:13,861 --> 20:58:16,897
- And other villagers
noticed that,

2295
20:58:16,964 --> 20:58:20,200
"Wow, this is
a source of money."

2296
20:58:20,267 --> 20:58:23,837
- That is when tourism
became a thought

2297
20:58:24,505 --> 20:58:26,473
in the minds of several people.

2298
20:58:26,540 --> 20:58:29,977
And after <i>The Advocate</i>
published an article--

2299
20:58:30,043 --> 20:58:31,645
I believe this is what it said:

2300
20:58:31,712 --> 20:58:34,281
Ephraim wants a good hotel,

2301
20:58:34,715 --> 20:58:37,084
and tourists would be plenty.

2302
20:58:37,150 --> 20:58:40,487
And Fordel Hogenson,
who was a Norwegian immigrant,

2303
20:58:40,554 --> 20:58:43,624
decided that
that would be what he would do.

2304
20:58:43,690 --> 20:58:46,260
He was a skilled carpenter,

2305
20:58:46,326 --> 20:58:49,062
he was a captain
of his own schooner,

2306
20:58:49,129 --> 20:58:51,265
he also fished for a living,
and made some money,

2307
20:58:51,331 --> 20:58:52,799
he also did some lumbering.

2308
20:58:52,866 --> 20:58:57,204
Everybody did everything in
those days, because they had to.

2309
20:58:57,271 --> 20:59:00,574
So he decided that he would
add onto his house,

2310
20:59:00,641 --> 20:59:02,843
and he added a little more,
and a little more,

2311
20:59:02,910 --> 20:59:06,513
until finally,
he enough space for 80 people.

2312
20:59:06,580 --> 20:59:10,384
The bedrooms were minimal,
chamber pots under the bed,

2313
20:59:10,450 --> 20:59:12,753
but they served
three meals a day,

2314
20:59:12,819 --> 20:59:15,322
and every meal was wonderful.

2315
20:59:15,389 --> 20:59:18,492
- And others were
adding onto their houses

2316
20:59:18,559 --> 20:59:20,360
and permitting people
to come and stay.

2317
20:59:20,427 --> 20:59:23,931
- Soon, new hotels
began to spring up

2318
20:59:23,997 --> 20:59:28,669
all around the peninsula,
and Washington Island.

2319
20:59:29,002 --> 20:59:31,505
The Goodrich
Transportation Company,

2320
20:59:31,572 --> 20:59:34,508
began to bring in
boatloads of tourists,

2321
20:59:34,575 --> 20:59:39,513
running regular routes
from Chicago and Milwaukee.

2322
20:59:39,580 --> 20:59:42,749
- And they used the large
steamship, the <i>Carolina</i> .

2323
20:59:42,816 --> 20:59:45,152
And they had sleeping quarters,
a big dining room.

2324
20:59:45,219 --> 20:59:46,920
It was really a nice ship.

2325
20:59:46,987 --> 20:59:50,324
This big <i>Carolina</i>
would lumber in to the dock,

2326
20:59:50,390 --> 20:59:52,159
and completely
overpower the dock.

2327
20:59:52,226 --> 20:59:53,760
At the big event,
of course,

2328
20:59:53,827 --> 20:59:56,763
the captain would blow his siren

2329
20:59:56,830 --> 20:59:58,232
coming around the bend,

2330
20:59:58,298 --> 21:00:00,601
and villagers would
drop what they were doing

2331
21:00:00,667 --> 21:00:01,935
and rush down to the dock

2332
21:00:02,002 --> 21:00:04,538
and see who was showing up,
what they were wearing.

2333
21:00:04,605 --> 21:00:06,773
- And everybody would
flock down to the dock,

2334
21:00:06,840 --> 21:00:09,343
because someone interesting
might be on the boat,

2335
21:00:09,409 --> 21:00:13,280
or some thing that they had
ordered might be on the boat,

2336
21:00:13,347 --> 21:00:16,383
and maybe they wanted to ship
something out on the boat.

2337
21:00:16,450 --> 21:00:20,087
Big excitement
when the boats came in.

2338
21:00:20,153 --> 21:00:22,289
- But lots of people came.

2339
21:00:22,356 --> 21:00:24,758
And they'd stay
two to three weeks, a long time.

2340
21:00:24,825 --> 21:00:26,193
Some stayed the whole summer.

2341
21:00:26,260 --> 21:00:28,595
And they were escaping
the summer heat

2342
21:00:28,662 --> 21:00:32,733
in Chicago, Milwaukee, and my
wife's family's from St. Louis,

2343
21:00:32,799 --> 21:00:35,035
and that's why they came up.

2344
21:00:35,102 --> 21:00:37,204
It was a place
where people could come

2345
21:00:37,271 --> 21:00:40,941
and lay back and relax
and enjoy nature.

2346
21:00:41,909 --> 21:00:44,044
You went on picnics,
you fished,

2347
21:00:44,111 --> 21:00:46,780
you spent time on the water

2348
21:00:46,847 --> 21:00:48,515
doing whatever,

2349
21:00:49,516 --> 21:00:51,718
and enjoyed
good meals at these hotels.

2350
21:00:51,785 --> 21:00:54,087
Those were really good times
for those people.

2351
21:00:54,154 --> 21:00:57,958
And there were some very wealthy
people who came up here.

2352
21:00:58,025 --> 21:01:02,696
And by 1921, there were
11 major, old-timey hotels

2353
21:01:04,765 --> 21:01:06,266
in Ephraim.

2354
21:01:06,333 --> 21:01:08,769
On the American plan,
all your meals were provided.

2355
21:01:08,836 --> 21:01:11,839
- Three meals a day
for a lot of people;

2356
21:01:11,905 --> 21:01:13,807
That's a lot of work.

2357
21:01:14,408 --> 21:01:16,877
And so, local people
had to be hired,

2358
21:01:16,944 --> 21:01:19,513
women in particular,
who didn't have jobs.

2359
21:01:19,580 --> 21:01:22,149
People didn't hire women
for anything in those days.

2360
21:01:22,216 --> 21:01:25,018
So, people who were
known to be good cooks

2361
21:01:25,085 --> 21:01:27,855
would be asked if they
would help cook for the summer.

2362
21:01:27,921 --> 21:01:30,524
Other people would be asked if
they could do housekeeping.

2363
21:01:30,591 --> 21:01:32,025
So the man of the family would

2364
21:01:32,092 --> 21:01:34,862
take care of the outside work,

2365
21:01:34,928 --> 21:01:37,798
and the ladies would
take care of the inside.

2366
21:01:37,865 --> 21:01:40,400
There are some who say
the women did it all.

2367
21:01:40,467 --> 21:01:44,171
The women really were the heart
and soul of these old hotels.

2368
21:01:44,238 --> 21:01:47,674
Tillie Valentine ran
the Anderson Hotel--

2369
21:01:47,741 --> 21:01:49,009
I mean really ran it.

2370
21:01:49,076 --> 21:01:53,447
Eugenia Smith at the Eagle Inn--
stern taskmaster.

2371
21:01:53,514 --> 21:01:58,952
Serena Olson at the Hillside,
Augusta Olson at the Pine Grove.

2372
21:01:59,019 --> 21:02:02,222
They managed the place,
they were cooks, greeted people,

2373
21:02:02,289 --> 21:02:05,726
did the book-keeping,
and managed the kitchen,

2374
21:02:05,792 --> 21:02:07,394
and managed the help.

2375
21:02:07,461 --> 21:02:09,296
It was a big deal.

2376
21:02:09,363 --> 21:02:12,633
A lot of money flowed into
Door County through tourism,

2377
21:02:12,699 --> 21:02:14,368
and still does.

2378
21:02:15,068 --> 21:02:18,305
- How wonderful that there
is such a thing as a tourist.

2379
21:02:18,372 --> 21:02:20,841
It gives all of us a livelihood.

2380
21:02:20,908 --> 21:02:22,576
(chuckling)

2381
21:02:24,745 --> 21:02:26,413
?

2382
21:02:29,716 --> 21:02:34,254
- In 1908, noted
landscape architect John Nolen

2383
21:02:34,321 --> 21:02:35,789
toured Wisconsin,

2384
21:02:35,856 --> 21:02:40,661
in search of the best places
to develop state parks.

2385
21:02:40,961 --> 21:02:44,731
- In Door County, Nolen
and the new State Parks Board

2386
21:02:44,798 --> 21:02:48,735
arrived to inspect the land
that would eventually become

2387
21:02:48,802 --> 21:02:50,938
Peninsula State Park.

2388
21:02:51,605 --> 21:02:55,976
The board members were struck
by the site's possibilities

2389
21:02:56,043 --> 21:02:57,644
for recreation,

2390
21:02:57,711 --> 21:03:02,883
and as a place for city people
to reconnect with nature.

2391
21:03:02,950 --> 21:03:06,653
In his final report,
Nolen explained

2392
21:03:06,720 --> 21:03:09,089
why Wisconsin
should move quickly

2393
21:03:09,156 --> 21:03:12,626
to preserve the land
for a state park.

2394
21:03:13,894 --> 21:03:17,231
- "It is wild, and as yet,
unspoiled,

2395
21:03:17,731 --> 21:03:21,802
"with alternating interests
of woodland and cliff,

2396
21:03:21,869 --> 21:03:23,537
"bay and land.

2397
21:03:24,238 --> 21:03:27,374
"It sweeps from point to point--

2398
21:03:27,441 --> 21:03:29,910
"here a beach of fine sand,

2399
21:03:32,613 --> 21:03:34,281
"there of gravel.

2400
21:03:36,016 --> 21:03:40,554
"Then, in contrast,
precipitous limestone bluffs,

2401
21:03:40,621 --> 21:03:44,324
"rising to a height
of a hundred feet or more.

2402
21:03:44,391 --> 21:03:48,395
"Almost at each step,
a new vista is opened,

2403
21:03:49,530 --> 21:03:52,599
"a new composition afforded.

2404
21:03:52,666 --> 21:03:56,470
"The vegetation is rich,
and varied.

2405
21:03:56,537 --> 21:04:00,340
"Extensive forests
cover large tracts.

2406
21:04:00,941 --> 21:04:03,043
"With the purest of air,

2407
21:04:03,110 --> 21:04:06,413
"laden with the fragrance
of balsam and pine,

2408
21:04:06,480 --> 21:04:08,916
"it is no exaggeration to say

2409
21:04:08,982 --> 21:04:11,618
"that the broad beauty
of the scenery

2410
21:04:11,685 --> 21:04:14,488
"is not surpassed in Wisconsin."

2411
21:04:14,555 --> 21:04:16,223
(bird calling)

2412
21:04:17,858 --> 21:04:19,526
- Jens Jensen,

2413
21:04:19,793 --> 21:04:22,729
another nationally-known
landscape architect,

2414
21:04:22,796 --> 21:04:25,933
also made his mark
on Door County.

2415
21:04:26,433 --> 21:04:27,901
After a long career

2416
21:04:27,968 --> 21:04:31,572
as superintendent and designer
of Chicago parks,

2417
21:04:31,638 --> 21:04:34,808
and as a landscape designer
for wealthy clients,

2418
21:04:34,875 --> 21:04:39,046
Jensen retreated to Ellison Bay,
in northern Door County,

2419
21:04:39,112 --> 21:04:43,083
to start a folk school
he called, "The Clearing."

2420
21:04:43,150 --> 21:04:46,353
- He intended it to be
a clearing of the mind,

2421
21:04:46,420 --> 21:04:49,756
a place where things
would become clear to you

2422
21:04:49,823 --> 21:04:51,625
out in nature.

2423
21:04:51,692 --> 21:04:53,594
He wanted a place...

2424
21:04:54,261 --> 21:04:56,930
He called it, "On the edge
of the wild... somewhere,

2425
21:04:56,997 --> 21:04:59,199
"high up
on a hill or a bluff,

2426
21:04:59,266 --> 21:05:01,969
"with a view
of a large expanse of water,

2427
21:05:02,035 --> 21:05:04,037
"with a setting sun."

2428
21:05:04,538 --> 21:05:07,140
He felt people
had to be out in nature

2429
21:05:07,207 --> 21:05:08,575
in order to be human.

2430
21:05:08,642 --> 21:05:13,213
People need this, in an
increasingly urbanizing society,

2431
21:05:13,280 --> 21:05:16,416
they get removed from it,
and we still need this.

2432
21:05:16,483 --> 21:05:20,387
He was passionate,
and he was a visionary.

2433
21:05:20,988 --> 21:05:24,091
He envisioned that whole
corridor from the Indiana border

2434
21:05:24,157 --> 21:05:27,861
all the way up past Milwaukee
as being one large city someday,

2435
21:05:27,928 --> 21:05:31,832
and we need to preserve
some areas as wild areas.

2436
21:05:31,899 --> 21:05:36,470
But he wanted people
to be out in them, using them.

2437
21:05:37,171 --> 21:05:40,007
- As Jensen continued
building "The Clearing,"

2438
21:05:40,073 --> 21:05:44,711
another call for preservation
began in Bailey's Harbor.

2439
21:05:44,778 --> 21:05:47,014
In 1924, Albert Fuller,

2440
21:05:48,749 --> 21:05:51,418
a botanist for
the Milwaukee Public Museum,

2441
21:05:51,485 --> 21:05:53,987
visited the Range Light
lighthouse station

2442
21:05:54,054 --> 21:05:56,557
outside of Bailey's Harbor.

2443
21:05:56,623 --> 21:06:00,627
- He had gotten reports of
rare orchids in that area.

2444
21:06:00,694 --> 21:06:04,364
Fuller was astonished
by what he found.

2445
21:06:05,132 --> 21:06:08,468
The forty acres of land
on the lighthouse property

2446
21:06:08,535 --> 21:06:10,504
teemed with an astounding array

2447
21:06:10,571 --> 21:06:14,441
of wild orchids
and other rare plants.

2448
21:06:14,508 --> 21:06:19,379
- He came up with 25 of the
40 native orchids of Wisconsin

2449
21:06:19,446 --> 21:06:21,815
right here
on the original 40 acres.

2450
21:06:21,882 --> 21:06:25,886
He really knew
this was something special.

2451
21:06:26,420 --> 21:06:29,790
- Over time, the waves and
currents of Lake Michigan

2452
21:06:29,857 --> 21:06:33,327
had formed a series
of ridges of land.

2453
21:06:33,861 --> 21:06:37,865
- And in between are these
unique wetlands called swales.

2454
21:06:37,931 --> 21:06:40,968
And depending on the soil type

2455
21:06:41,034 --> 21:06:43,003
and the hydrology
and the vegetation,

2456
21:06:43,070 --> 21:06:45,305
they can be open like this one,
like a sedge meadow,

2457
21:06:45,372 --> 21:06:46,907
or they can be a bog.

2458
21:06:46,974 --> 21:06:48,375
And that's what
makes it so unique,

2459
21:06:48,442 --> 21:06:50,544
is that in this small area,

2460
21:06:50,611 --> 21:06:52,713
you've got one plant community,

2461
21:06:52,779 --> 21:06:54,948
then another plant community
in the swale,

2462
21:06:55,015 --> 21:06:57,918
and then could be a totally
different plant community
on the next ridge.

2463
21:06:57,985 --> 21:07:01,655
And so the geological formations
with the ridges and swales

2464
21:07:01,722 --> 21:07:04,491
has created this unique setting

2465
21:07:04,558 --> 21:07:08,128
for a lot of different
flora and fauna.

2466
21:07:08,562 --> 21:07:11,431
- During the Great Depression
of the 1930s,

2467
21:07:11,498 --> 21:07:13,267
the coast guard turned over

2468
21:07:13,333 --> 21:07:16,270
the forty acres of land
surrounding the Range Lights

2469
21:07:16,336 --> 21:07:18,172
to the county.

2470
21:07:18,238 --> 21:07:19,740
- And up came the idea:

2471
21:07:19,806 --> 21:07:22,709
let's make a campground
out of the ridges.

2472
21:07:22,776 --> 21:07:25,779
And they were going to
build a road,

2473
21:07:25,846 --> 21:07:28,415
and they brushed it,
they cleared it out,

2474
21:07:28,482 --> 21:07:30,150
and one by one,

2475
21:07:30,217 --> 21:07:33,654
people began objecting
to what they were seeing.

2476
21:07:33,720 --> 21:07:37,524
And probably the
loudest objector was Emma Toft.

2477
21:07:37,591 --> 21:07:40,194
She hated what they were doing.

2478
21:07:40,260 --> 21:07:42,796
The story,
which was concocted about her

2479
21:07:42,863 --> 21:07:46,533
standing or sitting in front
of the bulldozers was not true,

2480
21:07:46,600 --> 21:07:48,268
but she said,

2481
21:07:48,735 --> 21:07:50,137
"It made a good point.

2482
21:07:50,204 --> 21:07:53,140
"I would've done it
if I had to."
[chuckling]

2483
21:07:53,207 --> 21:07:56,176
- And Albert Fuller
got wind of that,

2484
21:07:56,243 --> 21:07:58,612
and started this real
grass-roots movement

2485
21:07:58,679 --> 21:08:00,814
to protect the 40 acres.

2486
21:08:00,881 --> 21:08:03,383
He started to work
with a lot of the local people

2487
21:08:03,450 --> 21:08:05,519
like Jens Jensen,
who had started "The Clearing."

2488
21:08:05,586 --> 21:08:09,556
Through the Bailey's Harbor
Woman's Club,

2489
21:08:09,623 --> 21:08:10,858
they started to
have these meetings,

2490
21:08:10,924 --> 21:08:13,026
and Albert Fuller would come in
and present.

2491
21:08:13,093 --> 21:08:15,028
"Don't develop this area.

2492
21:08:15,095 --> 21:08:18,765
"It's very unique
with its orchids, its diversity,

2493
21:08:18,832 --> 21:08:20,667
"and preserve it,

2494
21:08:20,734 --> 21:08:22,236
"and make it a destination

2495
21:08:22,302 --> 21:08:24,505
"that people can come in
and appreciate it."

2496
21:08:24,571 --> 21:08:27,174
- In a way,
he was pleading with them:

2497
21:08:27,241 --> 21:08:28,509
This place is special,

2498
21:08:28,575 --> 21:08:30,377
needs preserving.

2499
21:08:31,144 --> 21:08:33,480
And they listened to him.

2500
21:08:33,847 --> 21:08:35,849
- On October 4th, 1937

2501
21:08:36,350 --> 21:08:37,951
The Ridges started,

2502
21:08:38,018 --> 21:08:40,888
filed articles of incorporation,

2503
21:08:40,954 --> 21:08:43,557
and worked with
the Door County Parks Committee

2504
21:08:43,624 --> 21:08:46,760
to protect
the original 40 acres.

2505
21:08:49,329 --> 21:08:52,366
- The volunteer group
quickly began a campaign

2506
21:08:52,432 --> 21:08:55,802
to purchase a buffer of land
around the 40 acres,

2507
21:08:55,869 --> 21:08:59,139
inspiring future
preservation efforts

2508
21:08:59,206 --> 21:09:02,009
in Door County,
and beyond...

2509
21:09:02,543 --> 21:09:06,780
- That vision that they had
created a real ripple effect.

2510
21:09:06,847 --> 21:09:09,716
- It was one of
the first of its kind.

2511
21:09:09,783 --> 21:09:12,186
Quite a few groups
used The Ridges

2512
21:09:12,252 --> 21:09:14,821
as the model to copy from.

2513
21:09:14,888 --> 21:09:19,693
- Emma Toft went on
to become a conservation legend

2514
21:09:19,760 --> 21:09:22,262
for her decades of work
at The Ridges,

2515
21:09:22,329 --> 21:09:24,031
and her relentless efforts

2516
21:09:24,097 --> 21:09:28,302
to preserve her family's
old growth forest land.

2517
21:09:30,470 --> 21:09:34,508
Jens Jensen went on to lead
an effort to locate and purchase

2518
21:09:34,575 --> 21:09:39,413
wild land in Door County,
to be preserved as county parks.

2519
21:09:39,479 --> 21:09:43,116
- So, we have these special
parks in Door County,

2520
21:09:43,183 --> 21:09:45,085
that are kind of wild.

2521
21:09:45,152 --> 21:09:46,687
Ellison Bluff,

2522
21:09:46,753 --> 21:09:50,290
up the road a bit is Door Bluff
Headlands County Park.

2523
21:09:50,357 --> 21:09:55,395
Cave Point, down by
Whitefish Dunes, is another one.

2524
21:09:55,462 --> 21:09:56,864
- Albert Fuller went on

2525
21:09:56,930 --> 21:10:01,001
to join Aldo Leopold
and other UW-Madison biologists

2526
21:10:01,068 --> 21:10:05,806
to start what would become
the State Natural Areas program,

2527
21:10:05,873 --> 21:10:10,043
protecting Wisconsin's
endangered landscapes.

2528
21:10:10,110 --> 21:10:13,180
- He took this idea that
was started in Bailey's Harbor

2529
21:10:13,247 --> 21:10:16,917
to protect land
for its natural beauty,

2530
21:10:17,484 --> 21:10:21,522
but also to start preserving
land for flora and fauna,

2531
21:10:21,588 --> 21:10:23,223
and they've protected

2532
21:10:23,290 --> 21:10:27,761
well over 350,000 acres
throughout Wisconsin.

2533
21:10:28,328 --> 21:10:31,298
(waves lapping, bird chirping)

2534
21:10:33,967 --> 21:10:35,636
?

2535
21:10:39,806 --> 21:10:44,077
- In the 1860s, Door County
farmer Joseph Zettel

2536
21:10:44,144 --> 21:10:46,413
began planting apple trees,

2537
21:10:46,480 --> 21:10:49,082
and after 30 years,
he and his family ran

2538
21:10:49,149 --> 21:10:53,620
what was then the largest
orchard in Wisconsin.

2539
21:10:54,755 --> 21:10:57,357
In his decades
of growing apples,

2540
21:10:57,424 --> 21:11:01,028
Zettel never lost
a crop to spring frost,

2541
21:11:01,094 --> 21:11:04,631
due to the effect
of Lake Michigan and Green Bay,

2542
21:11:04,698 --> 21:11:06,500
on the local climate.

2543
21:11:07,968 --> 21:11:09,770
His fruit-growing success

2544
21:11:09,837 --> 21:11:12,539
attracted the attention
of Emmett Goff,

2545
21:11:12,606 --> 21:11:15,275
professor of horticulture
at UW-Madison,

2546
21:11:15,342 --> 21:11:17,010
and Arthur Hatch,

2547
21:11:17,077 --> 21:11:19,880
a fruit-grower
from Richland Center.

2548
21:11:19,947 --> 21:11:23,217
They set up
an experimental fruit farm,

2549
21:11:23,283 --> 21:11:24,685
near Sturgeon Bay,

2550
21:11:24,751 --> 21:11:30,157
and word soon spread of their
success in growing cherries.

2551
21:11:30,224 --> 21:11:33,427
- My grandfather got interested
in some of the trees

2552
21:11:33,493 --> 21:11:36,163
that were planted
down near Sturgeon Bay

2553
21:11:36,230 --> 21:11:38,131
about 130 years ago.

2554
21:11:39,833 --> 21:11:42,269
He made the three day trip
down to Sturgeon Bay

2555
21:11:42,336 --> 21:11:43,604
to see those trees.

2556
21:11:43,670 --> 21:11:47,040
He came back all enthused
about the possibility

2557
21:11:47,107 --> 21:11:51,044
of raising cherries
up here in northern Door County.

2558
21:11:51,111 --> 21:11:53,113
He ordered 700 trees.

2559
21:11:53,680 --> 21:11:56,483
- Of course, farmers were
looking for something else to do

2560
21:11:56,550 --> 21:12:00,387
besides milk cows and
the things that they were doing.

2561
21:12:00,454 --> 21:12:02,122
The farms around
our neighborhood,

2562
21:12:02,189 --> 21:12:04,424
some had five acres,
some had ten acres.

2563
21:12:04,491 --> 21:12:07,060
Just a little orchard
back in the corner somewhere.

2564
21:12:07,127 --> 21:12:08,529
And they had then

2565
21:12:08,595 --> 21:12:11,031
a product that they could sell
at a roadside stand.

2566
21:12:11,098 --> 21:12:15,435
Years ago, it wasn't uncommon
for people to trade at a store.

2567
21:12:15,502 --> 21:12:16,937
I'll have some cherries,

2568
21:12:17,004 --> 21:12:20,941
and maybe I can buy some oatmeal
or something with it.

2569
21:12:21,008 --> 21:12:24,144
One of the first ways
of marketing, of course,
was pick your own.

2570
21:12:24,211 --> 21:12:26,680
Where a family would come up
on a Sunday with their car

2571
21:12:26,747 --> 21:12:28,615
and pick cherries,
take them back home,

2572
21:12:28,682 --> 21:12:30,284
and they'd can them,
preserve them.

2573
21:12:30,350 --> 21:12:31,618
Jam and jelly.

2574
21:12:31,685 --> 21:12:33,487
Of course, you have
to take the pits out,

2575
21:12:33,554 --> 21:12:36,456
but they found ways
of doing that.

2576
21:12:36,523 --> 21:12:41,094
Hair pins work for that,
in case you want to try it.

2577
21:12:41,161 --> 21:12:43,830
Cherries are prone to diseases.

2578
21:12:43,897 --> 21:12:45,566
There was bugs that
would get in cherries.

2579
21:12:45,632 --> 21:12:48,202
The first fungicide to use:

2580
21:12:49,269 --> 21:12:52,072
blue vitriol
or copper sulfate.

2581
21:12:52,139 --> 21:12:54,808
That was something that
you would mix in with water,

2582
21:12:54,875 --> 21:12:57,077
along with hydrate lime
and arsenate of lead.

2583
21:12:57,144 --> 21:13:00,280
You'd stand on top
of the sprayer,

2584
21:13:01,248 --> 21:13:04,284
and as the team of horses
pull that thing down the row,

2585
21:13:04,351 --> 21:13:06,353
you would stand up there
and spray the cherries.

2586
21:13:06,420 --> 21:13:09,690
Of course, the thing would
blow back on the guy

2587
21:13:09,756 --> 21:13:11,124
that was doing the spraying.

2588
21:13:11,191 --> 21:13:14,061
He was as blue as the cherry
trees were, when they got done.

2589
21:13:14,127 --> 21:13:17,898
Everything was blue
from the blue vitriol.

2590
21:13:17,965 --> 21:13:21,101
Suddenly, there were
a couple of people,

2591
21:13:21,168 --> 21:13:24,938
a Reynolds and a Martin
Orchard Company,

2592
21:13:25,005 --> 21:13:28,242
that decided
to go into it big time.

2593
21:13:28,642 --> 21:13:30,511
Finally,
the Martin Orchard Company

2594
21:13:30,577 --> 21:13:32,579
got to be 1,000 acres.

2595
21:13:34,381 --> 21:13:36,450
As the market developed

2596
21:13:36,517 --> 21:13:37,885
it occurred to somebody,

2597
21:13:37,951 --> 21:13:41,455
maybe we ought to try to
commercially can these things.

2598
21:13:41,522 --> 21:13:43,657
They used to take the cherries
into the factory

2599
21:13:43,724 --> 21:13:45,125
and they'd go on a belt.

2600
21:13:45,192 --> 21:13:48,262
They'd have people
sitting along this belt that

2601
21:13:48,328 --> 21:13:52,799
would pick out the bad cherries,
pick out the stems, leaves.

2602
21:13:52,866 --> 21:13:54,735
Then they go
through the pitters.

2603
21:13:54,801 --> 21:13:57,905
The little thing goes down
and pokes the pit out.

2604
21:13:57,971 --> 21:14:01,008
I remember as a youngster,
we'd go to the factory

2605
21:14:01,074 --> 21:14:03,143
and then we'd have to wait
to get unloaded.

2606
21:14:03,210 --> 21:14:05,979
The line would be a bend
a half a mile long or something.

2607
21:14:06,046 --> 21:14:08,415
Waiting, and you'd get
all the news

2608
21:14:08,482 --> 21:14:10,884
in the neighborhood,
and all this sort of thing.

2609
21:14:10,951 --> 21:14:14,655
These boxes of cherries,
they held four pails.

2610
21:14:14,721 --> 21:14:16,223
We had two boys.

2611
21:14:16,290 --> 21:14:17,858
They'd get on the truck

2612
21:14:17,925 --> 21:14:19,860
and they would
unload the boxes for you.

2613
21:14:19,927 --> 21:14:21,962
One guy would pick up
the box on the truck

2614
21:14:22,029 --> 21:14:24,364
and throw it to the guy
that dumps it in the tank.

2615
21:14:24,431 --> 21:14:26,366
He'd take the box
and throw it to the guy

2616
21:14:26,433 --> 21:14:28,035
that stack it
back on the truck again.

2617
21:14:28,101 --> 21:14:30,871
There was a box in the air
all the time.

2618
21:14:30,938 --> 21:14:34,174
The boxes weighed
50 pounds a piece

2619
21:14:35,209 --> 21:14:37,978
and they could go through
100 boxes in no time.

2620
21:14:38,045 --> 21:14:40,247
One of the interesting parts
of it was

2621
21:14:40,314 --> 21:14:42,382
how are you going to get
these devils picked

2622
21:14:42,449 --> 21:14:44,318
once you got them on the tree?

2623
21:14:44,384 --> 21:14:47,454
It gets to be a big job
picking the cherries off.

2624
21:14:47,521 --> 21:14:50,958
It was a great opportunity
for the neighbor kids

2625
21:14:51,024 --> 21:14:53,560
to come over and pick cherries

2626
21:14:53,627 --> 21:14:56,196
and get paid so much
for a ten pound pail.

2627
21:14:56,263 --> 21:14:57,764
Not only that,

2628
21:14:57,831 --> 21:15:00,400
but families would come and pick
for just money.

2629
21:15:00,467 --> 21:15:01,735
One guy told me one time

2630
21:15:01,802 --> 21:15:03,737
that the family
would pick cherries

2631
21:15:03,804 --> 21:15:06,440
and it bought the coal
for the winter.

2632
21:15:06,507 --> 21:15:08,475
Finally, it got
to the point where

2633
21:15:08,542 --> 21:15:11,879
even the local people weren't
enough to pick the cherries.

2634
21:15:11,945 --> 21:15:15,883
I remember having the Indian
families coming from Oneida

2635
21:15:15,949 --> 21:15:18,752
and so many areas west of here.

2636
21:15:19,019 --> 21:15:20,821
Horseshoe Bay Farms

2637
21:15:20,888 --> 21:15:24,424
needed about a hundred people
for three weeks.

2638
21:15:24,491 --> 21:15:26,093
So what they did
is they started

2639
21:15:26,159 --> 21:15:28,395
the concept
of a cherry camp.

2640
21:15:28,462 --> 21:15:32,799
They recruited
13- to 17-year old young boys

2641
21:15:32,866 --> 21:15:34,635
to come here to pick cherries.

2642
21:15:34,701 --> 21:15:38,071
They promoted it
as coming to a camp.

2643
21:15:38,138 --> 21:15:40,407
You had to pick
your room and board

2644
21:15:40,474 --> 21:15:41,742
every single day,

2645
21:15:41,808 --> 21:15:43,610
which was
seven pails of cherries.

2646
21:15:43,677 --> 21:15:45,512
They had baseball fields.

2647
21:15:45,579 --> 21:15:47,581
They had boats and canoes.

2648
21:15:47,648 --> 21:15:49,449
They had a swimming beach.

2649
21:15:49,516 --> 21:15:52,853
The big attraction
of cherry camp to the kids was

2650
21:15:52,920 --> 21:15:57,224
the camp counselors
were Green Bay Packers.

2651
21:15:57,291 --> 21:16:00,227
- The Mexican families
used to travel

2652
21:16:00,294 --> 21:16:02,029
from one end of the country
to the other.

2653
21:16:02,095 --> 21:16:05,599
They'd start in Texas and
they'd follow the crops up.

2654
21:16:05,666 --> 21:16:07,067
They'd work in the sugar beets.

2655
21:16:07,134 --> 21:16:08,902
Then they'd go and work
in strawberries.

2656
21:16:08,969 --> 21:16:12,906
Then they'd end up in cherries.
Then they'd head back to Texas.

2657
21:16:12,973 --> 21:16:14,508
The whole family was out
picking cherries.

2658
21:16:14,575 --> 21:16:17,211
Little kids were
climbing up in the trees.

2659
21:16:17,277 --> 21:16:18,412
The whole family--

2660
21:16:18,478 --> 21:16:20,180
They would actually
look at this as being

2661
21:16:20,247 --> 21:16:22,850
a pretty important opportunity
for them to make some money.

2662
21:16:22,916 --> 21:16:24,818
Well that went along

2663
21:16:24,885 --> 21:16:28,288
until the war
came along, World War II.

2664
21:16:28,355 --> 21:16:30,624
The local people were gone,
the people were gone to war.

2665
21:16:30,691 --> 21:16:35,596
A lot of people were busy: war
plants, and this sort of thing.

2666
21:16:35,662 --> 21:16:37,931
One of the first things
that happened:

2667
21:16:37,998 --> 21:16:40,534
we had people from Jamaica,

2668
21:16:40,601 --> 21:16:42,903
Jamaicans picking cherries.

2669
21:16:42,970 --> 21:16:44,638
Probably one of
the most interesting groups

2670
21:16:44,705 --> 21:16:46,607
we had picking cherries was

2671
21:16:46,673 --> 21:16:48,709
German World War II prisoners.

2672
21:16:48,775 --> 21:16:51,144
These were German troops
in Rommel's army

2673
21:16:51,211 --> 21:16:53,614
that got captured
in North Africa.

2674
21:16:53,680 --> 21:16:57,684
We had camps that had
the prisoners in them.

2675
21:16:58,418 --> 21:17:01,021
- Back in the early fifties,
and so on,

2676
21:17:01,088 --> 21:17:03,423
was really the heyday
of the cherry industry

2677
21:17:03,490 --> 21:17:05,225
here in Door County.

2678
21:17:05,292 --> 21:17:07,494
There were 700 growers
growing cherries

2679
21:17:07,561 --> 21:17:09,129
here in Door County
at that time.

2680
21:17:09,196 --> 21:17:13,767
We'd raise up to 50 million
pounds in Door County.

2681
21:17:13,834 --> 21:17:17,638
12,000 migrants
would come into the county

2682
21:17:17,704 --> 21:17:20,240
to harvest that fruit by hand.

2683
21:17:20,307 --> 21:17:23,977
- So, the place kind of
got to be known as Cherryland.

2684
21:17:24,044 --> 21:17:26,380
We had the Cherry Blossom
Festival.

2685
21:17:26,446 --> 21:17:28,048
People would drive up
from all over,

2686
21:17:28,115 --> 21:17:29,283
drive around the country

2687
21:17:29,349 --> 21:17:30,984
and look at
the beautiful cherry blossoms.

2688
21:17:31,051 --> 21:17:32,786
The whole county was white.

2689
21:17:32,853 --> 21:17:36,690
Then there was
the Cherry Blossom Queen.

2690
21:17:36,757 --> 21:17:39,560
Then we had
Cherryland Festival

2691
21:17:39,626 --> 21:17:42,829
where there would be a
celebration, come to Cherryland.

2692
21:17:42,896 --> 21:17:45,365
We had a Cherryland airport.

2693
21:17:45,432 --> 21:17:48,101
The Cherry Road out at
Sturgeon Bay heading north,

2694
21:17:48,168 --> 21:17:50,504
the whole road
was lined with cherry growers.

2695
21:17:50,571 --> 21:17:51,905
Door County was Cherryland.

2696
21:17:51,972 --> 21:17:53,574
It was!
It was Cherryland.

2697
21:17:53,640 --> 21:17:55,442
It was an industry.

2698
21:17:55,776 --> 21:17:58,345
It really kept people busy.

2699
21:18:13,026 --> 21:18:13,560
volunteer here at PBS, a

2700
21:18:13,627 --> 21:18:15,963

21:18:35,315 --> 21:18:37,651
the board. But I bet the on

21:18:38,552 --> 21:18:41,288
vacation or tourism, right?

2710
21:18:41,355 --> 21:18:43,590

2816
21:24:14,955 --> 21:24:17,291
well. I talked in the last

2817
21:24:17,858 --> 21:24:20,427
process of creating these

2818
21:24:20,494 --> 21:24:22,729

21:30:09,810 --> 21:30:12,279
peering across the waves.

2933
21:30:14,248 --> 21:30:16,717
Listen, we've got a fewer.

2934
21:30:17,217 --> 21:30:19,686

support. We're going to be

2941
21:30:36,770 --> 21:30:39,239
But again, if you call now,

2942
21:30:39,606 --> 21:30:41,708
money doubled to support

2943

2950
21:31:13,941 --> 21:31:15,742
After World War I,

2951
21:31:15,809 --> 21:31:19,580
dozens of returning veterans
received federal funding

2952
21:31:19,646 --> 21:31:23,784
to study art
at the Art Institute of Chicago.

2953
21:31:24,985 --> 21:31:26,253
Two of their professors,

2954
21:31:26,320 --> 21:31:29,756
Frederick DeForest Schook
and Frederick Victor Poole,

2955
21:31:29,823 --> 21:31:31,391
decided to start a summer school

2956
21:31:31,458 --> 21:31:33,126
for the veterans,

2957
21:31:33,460 --> 21:31:35,362
in Bailey's Harbor.

2958
21:31:35,996 --> 21:31:38,866
- There were a number of
World War I veterans that came.

2959
21:31:38,932 --> 21:31:41,502
First they stayed in tents.

2960
21:31:41,568 --> 21:31:43,237
Then later,
some of the doughboys

2961
21:31:43,303 --> 21:31:46,974
stayed at a hotel
that was right nearby.

2962
21:31:47,774 --> 21:31:50,010
They would go around an paint.

2963
21:31:50,077 --> 21:31:54,281
They would paint scenes
looking out from the bluff tops,

2964
21:31:54,348 --> 21:31:55,716
looking out over the lake.

2965
21:31:55,782 --> 21:31:57,451
They would paint
the old buildings,

2966
21:31:57,518 --> 21:32:01,522
and some of
the interesting elderly people

2967
21:32:02,256 --> 21:32:03,524
that lived in Door County.

2968
21:32:03,590 --> 21:32:06,827
But they would go out
in the field a lot

2969
21:32:06,894 --> 21:32:08,462
because of
the area's scenic beauty.

2970
21:32:08,529 --> 21:32:10,864
It was great for artists,
still is.

2971
21:32:10,931 --> 21:32:13,333
They were quite a group.

2972
21:32:13,400 --> 21:32:16,270
They would come in to town
and go to the dances

2973
21:32:16,336 --> 21:32:18,205
at Washebek's Hall,

2974
21:32:18,272 --> 21:32:21,742
where there usually was
a polka band.

2975
21:32:22,309 --> 21:32:23,977
And they were active
in the parades,

2976
21:32:24,044 --> 21:32:26,313
which were traditional
during the 4th of July

2977
21:32:26,380 --> 21:32:27,781
at Bailey's Harbor.

2978
21:32:27,848 --> 21:32:31,318
They would have dances
with some of the local gals,

2979
21:32:31,385 --> 21:32:35,522
and they would dress up
in various costumes.

2980
21:32:36,356 --> 21:32:38,559
- Both professors,
Schook and Poole,

2981
21:32:38,625 --> 21:32:40,961
built cottages
in Bailey's Harbor,

2982
21:32:41,028 --> 21:32:44,131
and became among
the first of many artists

2983
21:32:44,198 --> 21:32:46,133
to make the move to Door County.

2984
21:32:46,200 --> 21:32:47,868
?

2985
21:32:49,169 --> 21:32:51,104
As improved transportation

2986
21:32:51,171 --> 21:32:52,906
brought more visitors
to Door County,

2987
21:32:52,973 --> 21:32:57,411
it also brought about
a need for more things to do.

2988
21:32:57,477 --> 21:32:59,112
- There wasn't very much to do.

2989
21:32:59,179 --> 21:33:01,014
In fact, we used to laugh about,

2990
21:33:01,081 --> 21:33:03,617
"What in the world
would people do in the summer

2991
21:33:03,684 --> 21:33:05,619
"if they didn't like
sitting on a rocking chair

2992
21:33:05,686 --> 21:33:09,523
"on the front porch
and looking at the water?"

2993
21:33:09,590 --> 21:33:12,793
- In 1935,
the sister and brother team

2994
21:33:12,860 --> 21:33:15,162
of Caroline and Richard Fisher

2995
21:33:15,229 --> 21:33:17,898
started
the Peninsula Players,

2996
21:33:17,965 --> 21:33:21,735
producing plays in the garden
behind a Fish Creek cottage.

2997
21:33:21,802 --> 21:33:24,204
- They felt people
were interested,

2998
21:33:24,271 --> 21:33:26,206
they had an audience
and it was coming,

2999
21:33:26,273 --> 21:33:29,476
so that when the Wildwood
Camp for Boys came for sale,

3000
21:33:29,543 --> 21:33:31,445
they purchased it.

3001
21:33:31,512 --> 21:33:35,449
- The camp would provide housing
for the actors and crew,

3002
21:33:35,516 --> 21:33:39,553
and space to build a stage,
designed by C.R. Fisher,

3003
21:33:39,620 --> 21:33:42,656
Caroline and
Richard's father.

3004
21:33:42,723 --> 21:33:46,093
- And the first acting company
got out wheelbarrows, axes,

3005
21:33:46,159 --> 21:33:48,562
and helped the tradesmen
build and set up

3006
21:33:48,629 --> 21:33:51,598
the first stage house
that we had here.

3007
21:33:51,665 --> 21:33:53,600
"Mama Fisher"... Lydia Fisher

3008
21:33:53,667 --> 21:33:55,969
was a graduate
of the Pratt School of Design,

3009
21:33:56,036 --> 21:33:58,272
and actually designed
most of the costumes that

3010
21:33:58,338 --> 21:34:02,242
the Peninsula Players produced
for most of the first decades.

3011
21:34:02,309 --> 21:34:03,777
When Caroline and Richard
started,

3012
21:34:03,844 --> 21:34:06,580
they worked as a team
in selecting the casts

3013
21:34:06,647 --> 21:34:08,182
and the company members.

3014
21:34:08,248 --> 21:34:11,051
They were producing
ten shows a summer,

3015
21:34:11,118 --> 21:34:12,786
one a week.

3016
21:34:13,320 --> 21:34:16,123
Caroline could convince people
to donate things.

3017
21:34:16,190 --> 21:34:17,658
She'd knock on the doors
and say,

3018
21:34:17,724 --> 21:34:19,726
"Can I borrow
that sofa or that painting?"

3019
21:34:19,793 --> 21:34:21,195
And people would do that.

3020
21:34:21,261 --> 21:34:25,966
Caroline was really the heart
and the energy of the players,

3021
21:34:26,033 --> 21:34:30,437
and what kept Peninsula Players
thriving for so many years.

3022
21:34:30,504 --> 21:34:32,172
?

3023
21:34:32,506 --> 21:34:35,375
- In Sturgeon Bay,
the late Gerhard Miller

3024
21:34:35,442 --> 21:34:37,678
developed his skills
as a painter,

3025
21:34:37,744 --> 21:34:39,446
while at the same time,

3026
21:34:39,513 --> 21:34:42,783
running his family's
clothing store.

3027
21:34:42,850 --> 21:34:45,485
I'd call myself
'one of the local yokels,'

3028
21:34:45,552 --> 21:34:48,889
'cause I think I've sold
clean underwear and socks

3029
21:34:48,956 --> 21:34:51,325
to almost every man
in Door County.

3030
21:34:51,391 --> 21:34:55,095
I was expected to
go into the clothing store

3031
21:34:55,162 --> 21:34:57,331
and continue on with it.

3032
21:34:57,397 --> 21:34:59,032
I went in in 1927

3033
21:34:59,099 --> 21:35:01,435
and I was in it until 1959.

3034
21:35:02,769 --> 21:35:05,672
And I was painting
all the time.

3035
21:35:06,373 --> 21:35:09,276
It was a dual career
at that time.

3036
21:35:09,343 --> 21:35:10,944
And it was a lot of work,

3037
21:35:11,011 --> 21:35:13,413
because I had to get up
early in the morning and paint,

3038
21:35:13,480 --> 21:35:15,616
and then I'd come home at noon
and grab a sandwich,

3039
21:35:15,682 --> 21:35:17,818
paint until
I had to go back to work,

3040
21:35:17,885 --> 21:35:19,853
and then I'd paint
in the evening.

3041
21:35:19,920 --> 21:35:24,591
My type of painting is in the
field of imaginative realism.

3042
21:35:24,658 --> 21:35:27,794
For instance,
one of the subjects

3043
21:35:28,295 --> 21:35:30,964
in one of the reproductions
we have

3044
21:35:31,031 --> 21:35:35,269
is of a buggy in front
of an old weathered barn.

3045
21:35:36,670 --> 21:35:39,473
Actually, the buggy was
from up near Sister Bay,

3046
21:35:39,540 --> 21:35:42,910
the barn was from down in
the southern part of the county,

3047
21:35:42,976 --> 21:35:45,312
but you put
the two of them together,

3048
21:35:45,379 --> 21:35:47,314
you're creating the picture.

3049
21:35:47,381 --> 21:35:50,384
You're not taking
a photograph.

3050
21:35:50,817 --> 21:35:53,287
- After decades
of disciplined effort,

3051
21:35:53,353 --> 21:35:55,923
Miller began to sell
enough of his paintings

3052
21:35:55,989 --> 21:35:57,491
to make a living.

3053
21:35:57,558 --> 21:36:00,427
He opened a gallery,
and inspired other artists

3054
21:36:00,494 --> 21:36:03,397
to make the move to Door County.

3055
21:36:03,830 --> 21:36:07,801
- There was a time when I had
the only gallery in Door County.

3056
21:36:07,868 --> 21:36:10,704
I think he became
<i>the</i> major artist

3057
21:36:10,771 --> 21:36:13,006
of his time in this area.

3058
21:36:14,041 --> 21:36:17,811
- I was drawn to this place
in part by Gerhard Miller,

3059
21:36:17,878 --> 21:36:20,080
because he was working
in a vocabulary

3060
21:36:20,147 --> 21:36:23,083
that I understood
and appreciated,

3061
21:36:23,150 --> 21:36:24,852
and which I enjoyed painting in.

3062
21:36:24,918 --> 21:36:28,388
So I figured there was
a career potential for me here,

3063
21:36:28,455 --> 21:36:30,791
and that proved to be the case.

3064
21:36:30,858 --> 21:36:35,362
So it was beginning to evolve
into an art community,

3065
21:36:35,429 --> 21:36:39,766
though it was the place
I think that drew us.

3066
21:36:39,833 --> 21:36:42,169
The closeness to nature,

3067
21:36:42,236 --> 21:36:44,571
living really in nature,

3068
21:36:45,072 --> 21:36:48,609
is very important to me,
almost indispensable.

3069
21:36:48,675 --> 21:36:51,311
And I'm also very
interested in history,

3070
21:36:51,378 --> 21:36:54,815
Fortunately, I had
at the bottom of the hill

3071
21:36:54,882 --> 21:36:56,550
Anderson's dock.

3072
21:36:56,617 --> 21:37:01,955
Schooners coming in and out
was an endless subject for me.

3073
21:37:03,290 --> 21:37:04,958
?

3074
21:37:06,159 --> 21:37:07,761
- In the 1960s,

3075
21:37:07,828 --> 21:37:11,298
artists exploring
new approaches to modern art,

3076
21:37:11,365 --> 21:37:14,668
found a home
at the Peninsula School of Arts,

3077
21:37:14,735 --> 21:37:17,237
started and built
by Chicago artist

3078
21:37:17,304 --> 21:37:19,273
Madeline Tourtelot.

3079
21:37:20,707 --> 21:37:24,011
- Madeline took it upon herself
to found this school

3080
21:37:24,077 --> 21:37:26,880
and bring a group
of artists in residence here

3081
21:37:26,947 --> 21:37:28,615
starting in 1965.

3082
21:37:29,316 --> 21:37:34,421
- Adopted by a wealthy aunt, who
nurtured her artistic talents,

3083
21:37:34,488 --> 21:37:38,825
Tourtelot was free
to dedicate her life to art.

3084
21:37:39,259 --> 21:37:43,163
- She had a lifetime connection
to the Art Institute in Chicago.

3085
21:37:43,230 --> 21:37:45,098
She was able to travel to Paris.

3086
21:37:45,165 --> 21:37:46,867
But her family
had a home in Ephraim,

3087
21:37:46,934 --> 21:37:49,269
so she had
this ongoing connection

3088
21:37:49,336 --> 21:37:52,372
throughout her life
to Door County.

3089
21:37:52,439 --> 21:37:54,141
- Brimming with ability,

3090
21:37:54,208 --> 21:37:57,511
Tourtelot achieved success
in many art forms,

3091
21:37:57,578 --> 21:37:59,413
including music and painting,

3092
21:37:59,479 --> 21:38:02,683
designing screen prints
on fabric,

3093
21:38:02,749 --> 21:38:07,154
as well as photography
and experimental filmmaking.

3094
21:38:07,221 --> 21:38:09,656
- Some of the younger artists
that she brought in

3095
21:38:09,723 --> 21:38:12,993
in the late 60s and early 70s
were abstract artists,

3096
21:38:13,060 --> 21:38:14,828
they were experimental artists,

3097
21:38:14,895 --> 21:38:18,098
they were large-scale sculptors.
(welding rod arcing)

3098
21:38:18,165 --> 21:38:21,034
And she encouraged
experimentation and exploration.

3099
21:38:21,101 --> 21:38:24,371
That was very much part
of the philosophy of the time.

3100
21:38:24,438 --> 21:38:27,841
And so,
it brought the outside world

3101
21:38:27,908 --> 21:38:29,543
into Door County.

3102
21:38:29,610 --> 21:38:32,913
- And she was an outsider,
but people accepted her

3103
21:38:32,980 --> 21:38:34,248
even though

3104
21:38:34,314 --> 21:38:36,149
she had platinum blonde hair,

3105
21:38:36,216 --> 21:38:37,885
shapely figure,

3106
21:38:38,151 --> 21:38:40,654
drove a Jaguar
with the top down,

3107
21:38:40,721 --> 21:38:43,390
and her platinum hair
flowing in the wind...

3108
21:38:43,457 --> 21:38:45,492
...and maybe a scarf.

3109
21:38:45,559 --> 21:38:47,461
- Madeline's mission was to

3110
21:38:47,528 --> 21:38:49,429
foster an appreciation
for the arts,

3111
21:38:49,496 --> 21:38:52,699
as well as to provide access
to education in the arts.

3112
21:38:52,766 --> 21:38:54,368
So, right from the beginning,

3113
21:38:54,434 --> 21:38:57,104
it didn't matter whether
you were three years old

3114
21:38:57,171 --> 21:38:58,539
or 60 years old,

3115
21:38:58,605 --> 21:39:00,841
there was a place hare
at the school for you,

3116
21:39:00,908 --> 21:39:02,442
and so we began by
teaching children's classes,

3117
21:39:02,509 --> 21:39:04,111
weekly kids' classes.

3118
21:39:04,178 --> 21:39:07,281
- She found more creative energy

3119
21:39:07,347 --> 21:39:11,718
from collecting these creative
souls around her,

3120
21:39:11,785 --> 21:39:13,887
and that fed her creativity,

3121
21:39:13,954 --> 21:39:17,024
and in turn,
it fed their creativity.

3122
21:39:17,090 --> 21:39:19,059
- She loved to have
dinner parties.

3123
21:39:19,126 --> 21:39:20,894
Her delight was

3124
21:39:20,961 --> 21:39:23,330
in bringing
disparate groups of people

3125
21:39:23,397 --> 21:39:25,065
who she...

3126
21:39:26,133 --> 21:39:29,369
...she sensed
a thread among them.

3127
21:39:29,970 --> 21:39:32,539
So there would be scientists,
and musicians

3128
21:39:32,606 --> 21:39:35,075
and writers and painters.

3129
21:39:36,043 --> 21:39:39,213
She would put us all together
in a room,

3130
21:39:39,279 --> 21:39:42,549
and then make
these beautiful dinners.

3131
21:39:42,616 --> 21:39:44,751
And the conversations

3132
21:39:45,419 --> 21:39:46,854
were so enlivening,

3133
21:39:46,920 --> 21:39:50,257
and the things that
it would lead to, and...

3134
21:39:50,324 --> 21:39:53,160
She was fabulous,
and I credit her,

3135
21:39:53,227 --> 21:39:56,563
in my lifetime,
with being the spark

3136
21:39:57,264 --> 21:39:59,366
helping to make Door County

3137
21:39:59,433 --> 21:40:02,669
an authentically creative place.

3138
21:40:07,174 --> 21:40:08,842
?

3139
21:40:12,946 --> 21:40:14,448
(waves crashing)

3140
21:40:14,515 --> 21:40:16,183
- By the 1970s,

3141
21:40:16,450 --> 21:40:18,986
Door County's
traditional way of life

3142
21:40:19,052 --> 21:40:21,622
would undergo big changes.

3143
21:40:23,457 --> 21:40:26,493
- There was over 400 fishermen
at the turn of the 20th century,

3144
21:40:26,560 --> 21:40:29,730
and it stayed that way
until about the 1950s,

3145
21:40:29,796 --> 21:40:32,165
and then it slowly
started to decline

3146
21:40:32,232 --> 21:40:35,302
due to invasive species
entering the Great Lakes.

3147
21:40:35,369 --> 21:40:37,337
It's just something that's

3148
21:40:37,404 --> 21:40:39,673
just a mere shadow
of what it once was.

3149
21:40:39,740 --> 21:40:42,042
You've got maybe
a handful of fishermen left,

3150
21:40:42,109 --> 21:40:45,245
maybe five in Door County,
compared to 400.

3151
21:40:45,312 --> 21:40:48,182
It was the main industry
at one time,

3152
21:40:48,248 --> 21:40:50,017
surpassing logging and farming,

3153
21:40:50,083 --> 21:40:55,656
and it just managed to be part
of the essence of Door County.

3154
21:41:00,160 --> 21:41:05,766
- In 1969, <i>National Geographic</i>
magazine featured Door County

3155
21:41:05,832 --> 21:41:07,434
in an article called

3156
21:41:07,501 --> 21:41:09,970
"A Kingdom So Delicious."

3157
21:41:10,470 --> 21:41:12,406
- And, of course,
with a distribution

3158
21:41:12,472 --> 21:41:15,008
of <i>National Geographic</i> ,
it got the word out on

3159
21:41:15,075 --> 21:41:20,314
what a beautiful and wonderful
retreat Door County was.

3160
21:41:21,148 --> 21:41:23,717
- "A Kingdom So Delicious?"

3161
21:41:24,184 --> 21:41:25,252
Wow.

3162
21:41:25,319 --> 21:41:27,421
That brought a lot of people
to this kingdom.

3163
21:41:27,487 --> 21:41:31,859
- That seemed to open
the floodgates for tourism.

3164
21:41:31,925 --> 21:41:33,694
- It just brought out

3165
21:41:33,760 --> 21:41:36,530
all of the attributes
of the county,

3166
21:41:36,597 --> 21:41:38,699
and emphasized them and it--

3167
21:41:38,765 --> 21:41:41,568
Well, if I were a developer,
that's where I would have gone

3168
21:41:41,635 --> 21:41:43,737
right then, is to Door County.

3169
21:41:43,804 --> 21:41:47,674
- And there was no effective
zoning, no land use plan,

3170
21:41:47,741 --> 21:41:50,210
nothing in place to stifle

3171
21:41:50,878 --> 21:41:52,646
all this new development.

3172
21:41:52,713 --> 21:41:56,216
- At the same time,
Manitowoc Shipbuilding

3173
21:41:56,283 --> 21:41:59,019
bought two Sturgeon Bay
shipyards.

3174
21:41:59,086 --> 21:42:01,522
The new
Bay Shipbuilding Corporation

3175
21:42:01,588 --> 21:42:03,957
created hundreds of jobs,

3176
21:42:04,024 --> 21:42:07,227
building freighters
and other Great Lakes ships.

3177
21:42:07,294 --> 21:42:10,931
With thousands of new
year-round residents,

3178
21:42:10,998 --> 21:42:13,534
and tens of thousands
more tourists,

3179
21:42:13,600 --> 21:42:16,970
local governments began to
consider controlling growth,

3180
21:42:17,037 --> 21:42:20,207
through land use planning
and zoning laws.

3181
21:42:20,274 --> 21:42:24,244
- And we've grown so fast
the last seven years,

3182
21:42:24,311 --> 21:42:25,812
that we're going to stop

3183
21:42:25,879 --> 21:42:27,548
and take a good hard look

3184
21:42:27,614 --> 21:42:29,349
at the progress we've made,

3185
21:42:29,416 --> 21:42:33,754
and evaluate the things
that have been accomplished,

3186
21:42:33,820 --> 21:42:37,724
and then, do more planning
for the future.

3187
21:42:40,928 --> 21:42:42,596
- To provide a blueprint

3188
21:42:42,663 --> 21:42:45,365
of lands needing protection
from development,

3189
21:42:45,432 --> 21:42:49,469
UW-Madison ecologist Jim
Zimmerman, and his wife Libby,

3190
21:42:49,536 --> 21:42:51,271
began an inventory

3191
21:42:51,338 --> 21:42:54,541
of the vegetation and ecosystems
of Door County.

3192
21:42:54,608 --> 21:42:56,476
- And he knew everything,

3193
21:42:56,543 --> 21:42:59,446
it seemed, about the outdoors.

3194
21:43:00,280 --> 21:43:03,350
He knew every plant
and every tree.

3195
21:43:03,417 --> 21:43:07,921
- Unbelievable,
that he was able to identify

3196
21:43:07,988 --> 21:43:09,857
the areas that were

3197
21:43:09,923 --> 21:43:11,859
ecologically very significant.

3198
21:43:11,925 --> 21:43:13,193
Unbelievable!

3199
21:43:13,260 --> 21:43:15,796
I don't think there was
another person in the world,

3200
21:43:15,863 --> 21:43:18,298
other than Jim Zimmerman,
who could do that.

3201
21:43:18,365 --> 21:43:22,336
That really required a knowledge
and a discipline

3202
21:43:22,402 --> 21:43:24,438
and a dedication to do that.

3203
21:43:24,505 --> 21:43:28,809
And probably,
his greatest single achievement

3204
21:43:28,876 --> 21:43:30,544
was he developed

3205
21:43:31,078 --> 21:43:32,813
a map of Door County

3206
21:43:32,880 --> 21:43:38,318
identifying all the places that
were environmentally important.

3207
21:43:38,385 --> 21:43:42,222
- We assembled them
into township-size maps.

3208
21:43:42,289 --> 21:43:44,591
- People could look
at those maps

3209
21:43:44,658 --> 21:43:46,426
and see exactly
where they lived,

3210
21:43:46,493 --> 21:43:49,263
and what their
particular area was like,

3211
21:43:49,329 --> 21:43:52,966
if it was bordering
on a wetland, and so forth,

3212
21:43:53,033 --> 21:43:56,837
and it made them aware
of what was going on

3213
21:43:57,571 --> 21:44:00,741
in their own community,
and what needed to be protected.

3214
21:44:00,807 --> 21:44:03,577
- We had several meetings with

3215
21:44:03,644 --> 21:44:06,980
'Jim Zim,' as we called him,
as a presenter.

3216
21:44:07,047 --> 21:44:10,184
And there was always
a full crowd.

3217
21:44:10,250 --> 21:44:14,488
I think Jim was aware
that nothing is forever,

3218
21:44:15,689 --> 21:44:17,658
that things are changing,

3219
21:44:17,724 --> 21:44:21,962
and once they're gone,
they're gone forever.

3220
21:44:22,596 --> 21:44:25,499
- A new awareness
of lands needing protection

3221
21:44:25,566 --> 21:44:29,069
led to the formation
of the Door County Land Trust,

3222
21:44:29,136 --> 21:44:31,405
a local group that now protects

3223
21:44:31,471 --> 21:44:33,106
over 7,000 acres

3224
21:44:33,173 --> 21:44:36,109
of sensitive and scenic lands.

3225
21:44:36,176 --> 21:44:37,845
[bird call]

3226
21:44:46,920 --> 21:44:49,022
In spite of all the changes,

3227
21:44:49,089 --> 21:44:51,625
Door County continues
to rely upon

3228
21:44:51,692 --> 21:44:53,594
many of the same resources

3229
21:44:53,660 --> 21:44:56,430
as generations in the past.

3230
21:44:58,665 --> 21:45:01,134
And the county's
setting and history

3231
21:45:01,201 --> 21:45:05,072
continue to provide
a lasting identity.

3232
21:45:06,273 --> 21:45:08,976
Villages still face the water,

3233
21:45:09,042 --> 21:45:12,846
built on the sacrifices
of the pioneers.

3234
21:45:15,415 --> 21:45:16,950
The draw to the land,

3235
21:45:17,017 --> 21:45:18,952
and the connection to the water

3236
21:45:19,019 --> 21:45:21,822
continue as they always have.

3237
21:45:25,292 --> 21:45:27,828
(children chattering excitedly)

3238
21:45:27,895 --> 21:45:29,897
Door County remains a place

3239
21:45:29,963 --> 21:45:32,666
to restore the connection
with nature.

3240
21:45:32,733 --> 21:45:34,668
- We can put him in
by the grasshoppers.

3241
21:45:34,735 --> 21:45:36,403
He'll be fine.

3242
21:45:39,406 --> 21:45:41,808
- The great diversity
of the land,

3243
21:45:41,875 --> 21:45:44,912
with many of its wild places
now protected,

3244
21:45:44,978 --> 21:45:48,448
will endure
for generations to come.

3245
21:45:50,651 --> 21:45:52,319
?

3246
21:45:57,457 --> 21:46:01,495
The landscape still inspires
artists of all kinds,

3247
21:46:01,562 --> 21:46:05,232
and the artists, in turn,
create another landscape,

3248
21:46:05,299 --> 21:46:06,967
of art.

3249
21:46:13,040 --> 21:46:16,410
And the arts
continue to flourish,

3250
21:46:16,476 --> 21:46:18,612
one thing leading to another,

3251
21:46:18,679 --> 21:46:21,481
kept afloat by local support.

3252
21:46:24,151 --> 21:46:26,420
Not on the way to anywhere else,

3253
21:46:26,486 --> 21:46:29,456
Door County remains
a destination,

3254
21:46:29,523 --> 21:46:30,991
a getaway,

3255
21:46:31,058 --> 21:46:32,793
and a place for fun.

3256
21:46:32,860 --> 21:46:34,995
(cheers and laughter)

3257
21:46:36,430 --> 21:46:38,565
But constant through it all,

3258
21:46:38,632 --> 21:46:39,900
is the beauty

3259
21:46:39,967 --> 21:46:42,302
that defines Door County.

3260
21:46:43,537 --> 21:46:45,205
?

3261
21:46:51,211 --> 21:46:55,549

boat brushing against dock)

think about it, that's why

3269

Whether it's because you

3270

in advance and picked out a
