The men who remembered the territory were dying, so Michigan started writing it down. This volume gathers the pioneer reminiscences and documents the state's historical society collected while the first settlers were still alive to be asked: the fur posts, the surveys, the lumber camps, the treaties, the county seats fought over. Raw material, first hand, before anyone tidied it into history.
