From the Back Cover
Michigan Yesterday & Today is a window to the past and a mirror to the present. Displaying historical images side by side with modern photography, Robert Domm presents the people, places, and activities that have defined Michigan through the ages: lumberjacks and miners, Native Americans and CCC workers, football teams and artisans; pine forests and cherry orchards, tulip festivals and ice fishing towns; fly fishing and maple sugaring, yacht racing and auto manufacturing; and much more. Turn the pages for a nostalgic look at how far we have come over the years and how much has remained the same.
