Author: Robert W. Domm
In the middle of the country and the middle of the continent, a Great Lakes state and a great Midwestern center, Michigan is the sum of America past, present, and future—a state in which yesterday's history and tomorrow's promise endlessly vie for pride of place. This book offers visions of Michigan in all its glory, past and present—from Native American settlements to trading outposts, from farming riches to vacation splendors, from its artistic heritage to its automotive muscle. Here images of yesterday and today appear side by side—state landmarks and architecture, capitol buildings and icons of pop culture—bringing to life the transformations of time and history, and the marvels that persist. Photographs and postcards, brochures and advertisements document the history of Michigan as it lives in pictures and memory, a stalwart of the American heartland.
