Hollars combed the archives of local newspapers only to discover vast discrepancies in articles about the deaths. In homage to Michael Lesy's cult classic, \u003cem\u003eWisconsin\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eDeath\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eTrip\u003c\/em\u003e, Hollars pairs reports from late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century journalists with fictional versions, creating a hybrid text complete with facts, lies, and a wide range of blurring in between. Charles Van Schaick's macabre, staged photographs from the era appear alongside the dispatches, further complicating the messiness of history and the limits of truth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 216\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.59 x 10.01 x 8.06 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 01, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505566531762,"sku":"9780826355034","price":53.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/qHSMFeahYj9780826355034_19e97ed6-9b27-4e78-889b-b891f15c25d0.jpg?v=1779535525","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/dispatches-from-the-drownings-reporting-the-fiction-of-nonfiction-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
