Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The White Islander The Island of Mackinac, set in the most translucent waters on this continent, with Huron on one side of it and Michigan on the other, greatly fascinates both tourist and student. No landscape-gardening and placarding of commercial man can ever quite spoil its wild beauty. The white cliffs and the shaggy wilderness defy him. Across the Strait, westward, is St. Ignace, where Father Marqutte´s grave may yet be seen, though the birch-bark coffin holding his bones has been removed to another shrine. On every anniversary of the removal, the Manito of the island remembers that despoiling, and never fails to bring a storm on the lakes. Across the strait, southward, on the mainland, the site of Fort Michilimackinac may easily be found. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
