But soon that lumber industry would fade and the city's future and growth would become dependent on a new industry that today is known as The Dow Chemical Co. As you open the pages of this book, you will see pictures from the those early days of Midland County. And you will see local history unfold as our book progresses through the decades right up to the present . We hope you are reminded that today is just another part of that history, a part you have a role in. Enjoy the moment." - back cover.

S.S. City of Midland 41
Author: Art Chavez
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 9780738532530
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
The historic steamship City of Midland 41 sailed the waters of Lake Michigan for nearly half a century, transporting railroad cars, automobiles, and passengers. After her construction in 1941 by the revered Manitowoc Shipbuilding Company, the nation's newspapers and newsreel services covered her launching and maiden voyage with enthusiastic flair. In time, she became the most beloved of all the Great Lakes car ferries. She was built as the flagship for the Pere Marquette Railway's Lake Michigan ferry fleet, and signified a bold departure from traditional Great Lakes vessel design. Her sleek outboard profile, spacious passenger accommodations, and modern interior furnishings were a hit with the traveling public. By the time she was retired from service in 1988, she had served both the Pere Marquette and Chesapeake & Ohio Railroads, transported thousands of travelers as a passenger ferry, and become known as the "Queen of the Great Lakes Car Ferries."
