In 1872 Mary Todd Lincoln visited Devil’s Lake and Baraboo after she had heard of the natural beauty of lake while “taking the waters” in Waukesha. She was most likely the first former first lady to visit Sauk County and while she found the lake enchanting she was not as impressed with the accommodations at the lake and decided to stay in town. Listen to the life and times of Mary Todd Lincoln as she tells of her life with "My Mr. Lincoln."
