SynopsisHundreds of historic postcards and photographs from days gone by illustrate the grandeur of this picturesque Michigan region as it was, revealing the reason why earlier generations were so attracted to this northern Michigan location. Historical newspaper articles, copy from early travel guides, and old postcard messages give the reader a true perspective on the region's history from the 1890s through the 1960s. The authors have a special talent for researching and selecting the most appropriate graphics to display the genuine feeling for this area. Their overview of the history of the locale along with illustrations will conjure up memories that will long be cherished.
