{"product_id":"9781666277395","title":"White Pine \u0026 Red Cedar: From Knapp, Stout \u0026 Co. to Stout's Island Lodge","description":"An island in northern Wisconsin's Red Cedar Lake was the epicenter of the 19th Century rush to harvest the vast White Pine forests of the Lake States. At the peak of the frenzy, no lumber company in the world was larger than the legendary Knapp, Stout \u0026amp; Co. of Menomonie, Wisconsin. Company President Frank Stout chose this island as the site for his personal Adirondack-style Great Camp and named it The Island of Happy Days. Now it's a grand summer resort on the National Register, open to the public.  This profusely illustrated book explains Stout's rustic lodge (made of Red Cedar logs) as well as the resort's many other structures. It details how the Stout family utilized and enjoyed the premises – an example of the lifestyle of America's super-rich 100+ years ago. Moreover, it explores the role of Red Cedar Lake in Knapp-Stout's White Pine Empire, as well as the life and times of one of the era's most successful lumber barons.","brand":"Barnes \u0026 Noble Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46425315901681,"sku":"9781666277395","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/9781666277395_p0.jpg?v=1765059353","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781666277395","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
