Book Description
Excerpt from Biographical Record: This Volume Contains Biographical Sketches of Leading Citizens of Oakland County, Michigan It has been our purpose in the preparation of this work to pass over no phase or portion of it slightly. But to give attention to the smallest points, and thus invest it with an air of accuracy, to be obtained in no other way. The result has amply justified the care that has been taken, for it is our honest belief that no more reliable production, under the circumstances, could have been compiled. One feature of this work, to which we have given special prominence, and which we are sure will prove of extraordinary interest, is the collection of portraits of the representative and leading citizens which appear throughout the volume. We have tried to represent the different spheres of industrial and professional activity as well as we might. To those who have been so uni formly obliging and have kindly interested themselves in the success of this work, volunteering information and data which have been very helpful to us in preparing this volume, we desire to express our grateful and profound acknowledgment of their valued services.

Excerpt from A History of Van Buren County, Michigan, Vol. 1: A Narrative Account of Its Historical Progress, Its People, and Its Principal Interests The period which has been spent in the pleasant task involved in the preparation of this work has been all too limited, although even if the period covered by the author's labors had been longer, the history, doubtless, would still have been incomplete and faulty. This is the nature of everything human, especially the writing of history. Yet the author believes that the work, as a whole, is cor rect, and knows that his labors, and those of his associates, have been conscientiously performed.

Book Description
Excerpt from History of Calhoun County, Michigan, Vol. 2: A Narrative Account of Its Historical Progress, Its People, and Its Principal Interests In early life his attention was turned to the study of antiquities, especially the Mound Builders, the Indians, geology, mineralogy and numismatics. He possessed a large collection of specimens along these latter lines. As he advanced in years his greatest happiness was found in nature study. The great desire of his heart was to awaken in others an appreciation of the beauties of the outdoor world, and with this end in view he worked for the organization and maintenance of the Nature Club. It became his keen delight, in company with genial friends from this club, to take long walks across Open fields, along winding streams, beneath leafy bowers and through wooded tracts. A' dinner cooked over an open fire or a luncheon spread by a natural stream of cold water was to him more inviting than the most delicious viands ever served at a conventional feast.
