Milwaukee's Historic Bowling Alleys - Bok av Manya Kaczkowski - Inbunden

From the U.S. Olympic team, to \Bowling With the Champs,\ to countless corner bars with a couple of lanes in the basement, Milwaukee has lived and breathed this sport. In the late 1800s, German brewers like Capt. Frederick Pabst and the Uihleins offered bowling in their Milwaukee beer gardens.
