Vintage Views of Leelanau County

Summary: Spectacular Journey
Review: Everything about VINTAGE VIEWS OF LEELANAU COUNTY is a spectacular journey. Anyone with a nostalgic bone in their body must view this book? For me, it "conjured" up so many memories of vacations to resorts where being with family and enjoying the area was the "why" you were on the trip.

Review: My mom was born and raised in Northport and I bought the book for her. We spent many summers in Northport and Leland, staying in the old cabins of my mom's family and hiking up and down the bluffs. My cousins and I have very fond memories of Leelanau county and this book brought it all back to me and especially to my mom. It's a wonderful book.

Summary: An Inviting and Entertaining History
Review: The sand I tracked onto the floor of my father's Buick Roadmaster wasn't from Leelanau, but the images of Michigan's beaches, summer homes and lake culture make this beautiful book much more than a history of someplace you may not have been. Vintage Views of Leelanau County will connect with anyone who remembers when family vacations were taken with the car windows rolled down and eyes peeled for Burma Shave signs. Hey! After swimming let's go get some ice cream!

Review: This is a beautiful book covering seventy years of historical postcards from northern Michigan. More than just a regional view, this book is an intriguing look at pleasure and life in America. Over two hundred pages crammed with photos and postcards, historical text and old advertisements. Lots of fun!

Summary: Absolutely Wonderful
Review: This is an absolutely wonderful book about Leelanau County history, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and northern Michigan tourism of days gone by. It's a must have if you vacation up north and would make a very memorable gift for those who visit that area. I highly recommend it. I wish a book like this existed for the entire west side of Michigan.
