Kalamazoo, Michigan, Michigan, Images of America, Paperback

Kalamazoo, Michigan, Michigan, Images of America, Paperback Since the arrival of its first settler in 1829, the story of Kalamazoo has been an interesting one.Out of the southwest Michigan wilderness, a small 19th century village quickly blossomed into a 20th century city. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a wide variety of industries made Kalamazoo a boomtown. Everything from paper, corsets, taxicabs, and pharmaceuticals allowed Kalamazoo to develop into a major center of manufacturing. At the same time, several colleges that would establish the area as a center for education were organized and expanded. Fortunately, much of Kalamazoo’s development has been well-documented through photographs and other visual illustrations. These images are the subjects of this volume, which is organized to show the varied elements of Kalamazoo’s history. Gathered from local archives and private collections, most of these rare photographs have never before been published.

Canterbury, Connecticut, Images of America, Paperback

Canterbury, Connecticut, Images of America, Paperback Canterbury: The First 300 Years provides glimpses of the people, places, and events that have given this town on the west bank of the Quinebaug River a rich and interesting history-three hundred years of history. Beyond the well-known account of Prudence Crandall’s opening of New England’s first academy for young black women, and fellow citizen Andrew Judson’s efforts to close it down, are the stories of Moses Cleaveland, namesake of Cleveland, Ohio; Lillian Frink, one of the first women elected to the state legislature; and Benedict Arnold, Canterbury student and notorious traitor. Canterbury: The First 300 Years reveals a town of industrious businesspeople who have produced items as varied as textiles, fly-fishing rods, mast hoops, and rare orchids, and of farmers who have raised everything from potatoes to skunks.
