Little Traverse Bay, Past and Present - Past and Present

Informationen zum Autor Michael R. Federspiel is the Little Traverse Historical Society's executive director and a lecturer with Central Michigan University's history department. His previous book, Picturing Hemingway's Michigan (Wayne State University Press, 2010), was named a 2011 Michigan Notable Book by the Library of Michigan. Rebecca Zeiss (MFA) is a fine art photographic mixed media artist. She currently teaches photography at the University of Michigan-Flint and exhibits her work nationally. The railroad's arrival in the 1870s tranformed the formerly sleepy Little Traverse Bay region into a tourist mecca. Little Traverse Bay shows that the area's history is still very much a part of the present day. Featuring contemporary images by Rebecca Zeiss, over three hundred historic photos and historical narrative by Michael R. Federspiel, this volume documents both the development of the tourist economy and also serves as a snapshot of the region today. Uses historic and contemporary images to trace the region's evolution to a modern-day tourist destination.
