This is the definitive illustrated guide to nearly 1,500 of Michigan's historic sites. ""Traveling Through Time"" lets travelers take Michigan history on the road and makes a great desk reference for researchers and armchair historians alike. Since 1955 the state of Michigan has erected historical markers along highways, in neighborhoods, and in city centers. ""Traveling through Time"" brings the short histories that appear on markers throughout the state together into one handy guidebook. Some of the book's special features include: location and full text of each marker; arranged alphabetically within county chapters; more than 85 historic and color photographs; special section on Michigan historical markers placed outside Michigan; and indexed by personal names and subjects.
