Stories of the Three Rivers that Built Milwaukee

With crisp writing, Tim John gifts readers From Source to City: Voyaging the Milwaukee River, Menomonee River, and Kinnickinnic River.

Prepare to be splashed, wowed, concerned, and humored at his stories. Tim gives us four books in one, with 375 images, 34 maps, 49 poems, and a plentitude of pleasing prose. He describes these streams from the 1830s to 1900, when they had become abused.

Join Tim, in a kayak, to voyage the improving Wisconsin streams which built Milwaukee and are often are too beautiful to describe in words. From Fond du Lac to Mitchell International Airport, these streams connect us in ways we are just discovering. Join this discovery.

Industry Reviews

"From Source to City is a wonderfully personal and eminently readable exploration of the Milwaukee River, Menomonee River, and Kinnickinnic River. Part history book, part travel journal, part memoir, and part poetry, Tim John connects the rivers' past and present and makes them highly relatable to residents of Greater Milwaukee today."

- Michael Barera, MSI, CA, Assistant Archivist & Digitization Specialist at the Milwaukee County Historical Society

A century from now, people who want to know their stories will have your book to savor I was particularly impressed with the stunning quality of your photographs. I have never seen a book whose illustrations achieved such a high standard of clarity."

- Thomas Cannon, Retired lawyer and historian
