En savoir plus sur le livre
Set in early 19th-century Michigan, the narrative chronicles the development of Shelby Township from a surveyed area into a thriving farming community, enriched by its fertile land and streams. The township played a significant role in the Underground Railroad and later became the residence of boxer Joe Louis. The construction of the Clinton and Kalamazoo Canal marked a pivotal moment, but it was the rise of the automobile, particularly with the establishment of a Packard Motor Car testing facility, that transformed the landscape from agriculture to modern urban development by 1960.
