Published Histories of Star Lake, Wisconsin

The purpose of this topic page is to allow access the Star Lake bibliography, which can be accessed by clicking on the BIBLIOGRAPHY button at the bottom of this page. The Primary listings are all books, articles, and other materials that tell the history or story of Star Lake.

The secondary references are sources of specific historical information regarding Star Lake that is not found elsewhere in the historical sections of this bibliography. For example, a reference to the Star Lake Post Office would not be included here because it would be found under the topic: Post Office. However, a note about an early barber shop in Star Lake would be listed here, because there is no other logical place to categorize it.
