Michigan:
A History of the Great Lakes State by Bruce A. Rubenstein, Lawrence E.
ZiewaczTo be sure, this history includes accounts of the French and British, the rise of the automobile industry, and the tales of lumbering and mining. This history also intends to go beyond the well-known aspects of the state's development; it intends to tell the story of the people of Michigan. Special emphasis is given to American Indians and their fight to survive in a "white man's world," the struggle for black rights and women's suffrage, and the contributions of white ethnics. |
