The Romance of Michigan's Past

"...This volume will introduce to a cast of colorful character who never made it into the traditional history books. They all have two things in common - their destinies became intertwined with that of the Wolverine state - and their exploits make mighty interesting reading."

"Massie will tell you about saints, and rogues, eccentrics and factory belles, ladies of the night and Arctic explorers, nudists and even a 1875 balloon ascension in great historical detail, that make all these characters and more come alive, a thoroughly enjoyable read!"
