Excerpt from The Upper Peninsula of Michigan: An Inventory of Historic Engineering and Industrial SitesThe Inventory includes 318 sites, with the overwhelming majority constructed before 1925. Each inventory card includes a brief history of the site, a physical description, the precise location of the site, a sketch-map, several photographs, and a list of historical source materials. The completed cards are deposited with haer in Washington and with the Michigan History Division in Lansing. Space limitations have made it necessary to delete some of the less important sites from this volume and to abridge the descriptions of about one-quarter of the sites. For three common structures, lighthouses, railroad buildings, and bridges, the less important examples are simply listed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
