More about the book

Keweenaw County, Michigan, is characterized by its vast landscape and sparse winter population, which swells in summer with seasonal visitors. Established in 1861 from Houghton County, it includes the northern half of the Keweenaw Peninsula, rich in history from the 1800s copper mining boom that led to the construction of Fort Wilkins. This military outpost was crucial for maintaining order among miners and the Ojibwa people. Over time, the county evolved from a mining hub to a center for maritime, fishing, and lumber industries, ultimately becoming a popular resort destination.
