Green County

by Kim D. Tschudy

Overview

This book presents a glimpse into Green County's colorful and historic past. Not only are the communities of present-day Green County included, but also within are the ghost towns Attica, Dayton, Dutch Hollow, Martintown, Postville, and Schultz. While far from a complete photographic history of Green County, the reader will get a glimpse of many of the lesser-known facets of its history, both physical and personal. It is the author's hope that this book will serve as a beginning point for the reader to venture deeper into Green County's collective past.
