The Kalamazoo River stretches 178 miles, from Hillsdale County to Lake Michigan. The river winds its way through southwest Michigan, providing opportunities for recreation, including kayaking and fishing. Settlements along the river have a rich history that began with Native Americans and European settlers. In the early 1900s, several dams were built along the river for hydroelectric power, leading to many mills (lumber, flour, grist, and paper) dotting its banks. This ushered in an industrial era along the river. For many years, the river and its surrounding land were the primary places for business waste disposal, which jeopardized aquatic communities. In the 1960s, people demanded better water quality, and environmental laws were passed in the 1970s. Derelict hydroelectric dams along the Kalamazoo River are now being removed to restore the river's natural flow and its aquatic life. Come along as the Kalamazoo River's past is revealed.

More History from the Midwest There have been few cars that ignited the public's interest as much as the Ford Mustang. The history of these floods is covered in the photographs contained in this book, including many provided by residents, local flood-fighting crews, and state and federal agencies. This book strives to point out what has been lost, what has been saved, and what can be found if one knows where to look. Situated in the heart of the Great Plains, Wichita has been a city of energy and change. Milwaukee is best known for its beer - and rightfully so. But in the days of Prohibition, the big alcohol suppliers were not Miller, Blatz, Schlitz, and Pabst. Some say the best way to experience the city is via the L, with its second-story view. Chicago's Lost "L"s is virtually a "secret history" of Chicago, and this is your ticket.

More History from the Midwest Along the way there were mom-and-pop motels, tourist traps, roadside restaurants, a man selling frozen custard, one living with snakes, and another who claimed to be Jesse James. Their stories are here. On Sunday, March 23, 1913, the burgeoning city of Omaha, Nebraska, fell victim to one of the worst tornado disasters in American history. Explore how the city of Lorain, Ohio, came to be and the vital role it played on its way to becoming known throughout the world. From the Barn Dance Frolic and Phone Forum to Sportsman's Notebook and The Big Show, WHO has consistently reflected the values of Iowans. As they watched construction of the block-long flatiron building brick by brick throughout 1927, African American residents of Indianapolis could scarcely contain their pride. By the first decade of the 21st century, the riverfront had reemerged as a vibrant residential, cultural, and recreational center.

About the Author

Lisa M. DeChano-Cook and Mary L. Brooks, both from Western Michigan University, Department of Geography, discovered they had a mutual interest in the Kalamazoo River, environmental issues, and other local history. The images for this book came from the many historical societies, libraries, and private citizens that can be found along the Kalamazoo River.
