With a diverse geography, beautiful natural wonders and cities, tourism naturally plays a major role in Wisconsin's economy, and the nickname, 'America's Dairyland,' speaks to the importance of agriculture. Of course, cheeseheads abound in Green Bay and throughout the state, as do the Effigy Mounds - burial mounds - in the form of animals or birds of the Woodland Indians. The Handy Wisconsin Answer Book takes an in-depth look at the state's variety along with its fascinating history, people, myths, culture, and trivia.
