  • Teacher's Guide: Montauk Historic Site
    STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF IOWA 600 E Locust St. Des Moines, IA 50319 [email protected] Teacher's Guide: Montauk Goal Through an on-site visit or through slides the student will experience the atmosphere of Montauk as a Victorian residence and understand William Larrabee's role in Iowa history. Objectives • Identify William Larrabee as an Iowa governor and progressive reformer • Look at the following aspects of Montauk: buildings and architecture, material culture, and the natural areas surrounding the site • Understand that while Montauk is a large elegant home, it is still rather modest, considering Governor Larrabee's social and economic status • Identify other Clermont sites: The Union Sunday School, the Clermont Museum, and the Larrabee's social and economic status • Develop an understanding of what daily life was like on an Iowa farm in the late 1800s Site Summary William Larrabee Born in Connecticut in 1832, William Larrabee moved to Iowa at the age of 21. He had little formal education, only completing the eighth grade. However, he was a lifelong self-learner. He worked as a teacher before becoming involved in land speculation. Eventually, he held business interests in banking, railroad, and coal industries. His public service began in 1867. He served 17 years in the Iowa legislature, then two terms as governor, from 1886 to 1890. Larrabee's progressive ideas put him at odds with his fellow Republican Party members. Among the causes he championed were woman suffrage, railroad regulations, and African- American rights. He held strong views on education, believing in tax-supported education for all students, and advocating the use of artifacts in the classroom.

  • Driftless Area - Wikipedia Visited 02/19/2020
    2/19/2020 Driftless Area - Wikipedia Visited 02/19/2020 Driftless Area The Driftless Area is a region in southwestern Wisconsin, southeastern Minnesota, northeastern Iowa, and the extreme northwestern corner of Illinois, of the American Midwest. The region escaped the flattening effects of glaciation during the last ice age and is consequently characterized by steep, forested ridges, deeply carved river valleys, and karst geology characterized by spring-fed waterfalls and cold-water trout streams. Ecologically, the Driftless Area's flora and fauna are more closely related to those of the Great Lakes region and New England than those of the broader Midwest and central Plains regions. Colloquially, the term includes the incised Paleozoic Plateau of southeastern Minnesota and northeastern Relief map showing primarily the [1] Iowa. The region includes elevations ranging from 603 to Minnesota part of the Driftless Area.

  • Geological PLACES to VISIT
    Iowa's NATURE SERIES Geological PLACES to VISIT A SUPPLEMENT TO IOWA'S LANDFORMS AND GEOLOGY One of the best ways to learn about and appreciate the landforms and geology of Iowa is to get outside and visit the rocks, sediments, and landscapes in person. While some of Iowa’s most interesting geological features (like the Midcontinent Rift or the Manson Impact Structure) can’t be seen at the surface, many interesting features can be explored up close in Iowa’s state and county parks, refuges, and recreation areas. This resource is a guide to some of the best sites around the state where visitors can explore more than a billion years of Iowa’s geological history as told in rocks and landforms. Visit each of these 32 locations to learn more about Iowa's landforms and geology. 1 GITCHIE MANITOU STATE PRESERVE 3 STONE STATE PARK The Sioux Quartzite is the oldest bedrock exposed in In the late Cretaceous, Iowa was located on the eastern Iowa, and this state preserve is the only public place shore of a shallow sea that stretched from what is now to see it. The rocks here are also the only exposed Alaska to the Gulf of Mexico. Stone State Park is the best metamorphic rock in Iowa. The sand that forms the location to view the sandstone, shale, and limestone that Sioux Quartzite was deposited in a braided river were deposited near the shore. Finds can include fish system 1.7 billion years ago. Quartzite is formed from and shark fossils, large bivalves, and selenite crystals.
