Book Description
A haunted history of one of Western Michigan's oldest cities Once a booming lumber town, Muskegon today harbors not just ghosts of long-gone industry but maybe actual ghosts, too. An apparition in Victorian clothing walks past Hackley Library patrons and disappears into a wall. Some believe him to be none other than philanthropist and lumber baron Charles Hackley. In the Hume House, the ghost of a young woman gloomily peers down at visitors from an upstairs window. Visitors to the museum on LST 393 often see a shadowy figure or hear someone walking behind them as they walk through the hallways, but when they turned around to look, no one's there. Join author Marie Helena Cisneros delves into thirteen spine-tingling supernatural tales from Muskegon's past.

Book Description
Successful railroad logging in Michigan began with the Lake George & Muskegon River Railroad. Begun late in 1876 by Winfield Scott Gerrish, this venture had a huge influence on the logging era in Michigan. The book examines that influence on other logging roads in Clare County, and on the construction of what later became the Ann Arbor Railroad. Two illustrations complement numerous maps and photographs.
