Download or read book Michigan Haunts: Public Places, Eerie Spaces written by Jon Milan and Gail Offen, Foreword by and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michigan has two beautiful peninsulas that are connected by stories, legends, and mysteries. This book is the perfect glove compartment companion for exploring those paranormal parts of the Mitten State, as most of these hotels, restaurants, theaters, lighthouses, and other places are open to the public. This road trip to "the other side," filled with hauntings, ghost towns, and bizarre tales of murder and mayhem, draws from more than 300 years of Michigan history--from the notoriously haunted remote lighthouses like Seul Choix in the Upper Peninsula to Eloise, one of the most famous psychiatric asylums in America, to the legend of Lover's Leap on Mackinac Island. What Purple Gang member still hangs out in Clare? What spirits lurk at Henry Ford's Greenfield Village? Here is a guide to all that and more, including Houdini's Detroit connections, the poisonings at Cass Corridor's Alhambra, and paranormal activity at Detroit's historic Fort Wayne. Puzzles are still waiting for a solution; Ripley's Believe It or Not once offered $100,000 to anyone who could solve the strange phenomenon of the Paulding Lights near Watersmeet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travel Michigan’s coast—and into the state’s history—with otherworldly tales of the spirits of those who sought to keep its waters safe. Michigan has more lighthouses than any other state, with more than 120 dotting its expansive Great Lakes shoreline. Many of these lighthouses lay claim to haunted happenings. Former keepers like the cigar-smoking Captain Townshend at Seul Choix Point and prankster John Herman at Waugoshance Shoal near Mackinaw City maintain their watch long after death ended their duties. At White River Light Station in Whitehall, Sarah Robinson still keeps a clean and tidy house, and a mysterious young girl at the Marquette Harbor Lighthouse seeks out other children and female companions. Countless spirits remain between Whitefish Point and Point Iroquois in an area well known for its many tragic shipwrecks. Join author and Promote Michigan founder Dianna Stampfler as she recounts the tales from Michigan’s ghostly beacons. “Haunting tales of Michigan’s lighthouses . . . Her stories come from lighthouse museums, friends and family.”—Great Lakes Echo

Download or read book Wilderness of Hope written by Quinn Grover and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2019-09-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Longtime fly fisherman Quinn Grover had contemplated the “why” of his fishing identity before more recently becoming focused on the “how” of it. He realized he was a dedicated fly fisherman in large part because public lands and public waterways in the West made it possible. In Wilderness of Hope Grover recounts his fly-fishing experiences with a strong evocation of place, connecting those experiences to the ongoing national debate over public lands. Because so much of America’s public lands are in the Intermountain West, this is where arguments about the use and limits of those lands rage the loudest. And those loudest in the debate often become caricatures: rural ranchers who hate the government; West Coast elites who don’t know the West outside Vail, Colorado; and energy and mining companies who extract from once-protected areas. These caricatures obscure the complexity of those who use public lands and what those lands mean to a wider population. Although for Grover fishing is often an “escape” back to wildness, it is also a way to find a home in nature and recalibrate his interactions with other parts of his life as a father, son, husband, and citizen. Grover sees fly fishing on public waterways as a vehicle for interacting with nature that allows humans to inhabit nature rather than destroy or “preserve” it by keeping it entirely separate from human contact. These essays reflect on personal fishing experiences with a strong evocation of place and an attempt to understand humans’ relationship with water and public land in the American West.

Download or read book Limerock written by Christopher Fahy and published by Crossroad Press. This book was released on 2016-12-11 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteen short stories about archetypal Maine natives and out-of-staters who have chosen to live in Maine. The stories included in this collection: The Smell of Spring The Rock The Glow of Copper Uncle Cub at the Paradise Fair The Best in the World Detour Lost The Tip Ride A Clock in San Diego One Day in the Short Happy Life of Anna Banana Mistakes Journey Holly Point Home In LIMEROCK, Christopher Fahy does what he has always done so well: he puts normal people into the most troubling circumstances, then watches carefully to see what they will do. A Fahy story is the most delicious kind of eavesdropping, but we come away from each one with a bigger understanding of the little moments in our lives: a bus ride, a pail of berries, a city clock, snowflakes on a dark road. This is human nature dissected in the most compassionate and lyrical way. —Cathie Pelletier, author of The Weight of Winter and Beaming Sonny Home Christopher Fahy's stories are like Nelson Algren’s The Neon Wilderness or anything by Erskine Caldwell. Fahy writes from his soul, deep inside truth about people caught in illiteracy and desperation. These people who happen to be from Maine are from everywhere, universal, which is what great writing is about. Fahy's command of colloquial speech shows brilliance. “Uncle Cub at the Paradise Fair” is a masterpiece. THIS BOOK IS A MUST READ! —Leo Connellan, Connecticut Poet Laureate, author of The Clear Bine Lobster-Water Country and The Maine Poems. Christopher Fahy’s LIMEROCK is a downeast smorgasbord, a feast of Maine life and its myriad characters. One of Maine’s literary treasures, Fahy is equally adept at drama, suspense, reflection or farce. He has the gift of vanishing before our eyes and allowing other people to rise up whole, living and breathing. In these pages Fahy escorts his readers from kitchen to field, forest to shore, moving us like ghosts into the homes and hearts of the folks we’ve seen for years but never stopped to talk to. —Michael Kimball, author of Firewater Pond, Undone and Mouth to Mouth.

Download or read book 100 Things to Do on Mackinac Island Before You Die written by Kath Usitalo and published by Reedy Press LLC. This book was released on 2018-04-15 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the Anishinaabe-Ojibwa people it was a gathering place, a sacred burial ground, and the home of the Great Spirit Gitchie Manitou. Throughout the 1600s French voyageurs, explorers, missionaries, and fur traders arrived at Mackinac Island. Its strategic location in the straits between Michigan’s Upper and Lower Peninsulas made it a military outpost the British and Americans found worth fighting for through the War of 1812. By the late 1800s Mackinac was a destination for city dwellers seeking fresh air, scenic beauty, recreation, and amusements. Today, passenger ferries transport visitors to the car-free island, where getting around is by foot, horse-drawn carriage, or bicycle, the air is still clean, and the scenery spectacular. Most of Mackinac is a state park, fringed with grand Victorian cottages and the whitewashed fort overlooking the compact village of pastel-colored hotels and shops (including the famous fudge makers). 100 Things to Do on Mackinac Island Before You Die helps you make the best of a day trip and reveals dozens of reasons to spend a night—or longer—at this captivating spot.
