For the first time in over a century, a complete history of the U.P.—from prehistoric origins to the present—is available. Drawing on oral histories, newspapers, census data, archives and libraries, Russell M. Magnaghi has written the seminal history of a very "special place" as seen through the eyes of the men and women who have lived here—the famous and not so famous.
