About
This book originated as an edited diary that was in fact written for family members of the author rather than for publication. It is more interesting for its details on travel logistics in southern Michigan in 1841 than for (meager) details about the places the author visited. He took a steamship trip to Detroit, then went on to Ypsilanti, and Ann Arbor. He then took a stagecoach to Jackson, where he had tea, and continued to Marshall. He says about Marshall, “This is to be the capital of the state.” Then he went on to Kalamazoo and Niles, coming back toward the east through Sturgis, Coldwater, Clinton, Ypsilanti and then Detroit again, before going to Ohio.
