Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sketches and Reminiscences of the City of the Straits: And Its Vicinity These Sketches and Reminiscences, etc., of this ancient City of the Straits, have been compiled, believing that there are few persons who do not like to read of old times, particularly of such as relate to the home of their adoption, and to compare the statistics of the past with the present. Of the past we can know much, and can only wonder what the developments of the future will be - what the next half century will do for our city. We who have witnessed the marvelous changes within the last half century or more, may not be more astonished than he who fifty years hence chronicles the growth of the city since 1883. While much (covering a period of more than half a century past) is from personal observation and recollection, the selections were published, from time to time, in the newspapers of the day, and preserved by the compiler, and were all written in Detroit, and to quote the saying of another, "They were all new when written." The early historical events are largely drawn from the writings of others, and the records of the Governor and Judges of the Territory of Michigan, of which the compiler was the official custodian for many years.
