Papa Hambone

George had not written for Wisconsin Tales and Trails for over a decade when he did this article for Howard Mead. The magazine had been renamed Wisconsin Trails, and was now coming out six times a year in a small, regular-sized magazine format.

George published Edna Meudt’s autobiography The Rose Jar in 1990. He did not expect to make any money by having North Country Press publish the book, but he wanted it to be done and done well. It is a beautiful hardcover edition which honored Edna’s writing.
