I have lived in Portland Michigan all my life, but until I purchased this book did I find out the incredible history of my town.
Excellent photographic history

This book contains hundreds of outstanding historic photographs of Portland, Michigan. Highly recommended for any fan of Michigan history or local history. What really stands out are the many candid photos of townspeople from the 1890s. The camera captured them smiling and enjoying life (not stiff and stoic like we tend to think of people from that era). Overall, a great book!
