Are you interested in learning more about the history of West Salem businesses, churches, schools, or other village activities? If so, Errol Kindschy's "Taking Care of Business....The West Salem Way" is the book for you! Volumes 1-5 cover the years of 1851-1959. Each book is filled with a wealth of information and photos detailing the events of days gone by. Is your name or the names of your relatives listed in these books? It's easy to find out, as each book has a detailed index. Books can be purchased for $15 each for Volumes 1-4 and $20 each for Volume 5 directly from author Errol Kindschy by calling him at 608-518-8566 or picked up in person at the West Salem Pharmacy or Le Coulee Cheese Castle (both located in West Salem). What a great way to learn about all the history that our village has known!
