Excerpt from Material for Geography of Michigan There are today 18 states larger than Michigan, but most of these are west of the 100th meridian and many of them limited for human occupancy by insufficient rainfall. In parts of our state the rainfall is light, but everywhere sufficient for agriculture. If a circle be drawn with its center at the southeastern corner of Michigan large enough to extend across Isle Royale, it will also include New York, Washington, Richmond, Va., and Raleigh, N. C. The radius of the circle would be five hundred miles. No state has so long a coast line. None has a greater variety of valuable resources. Lying far to the north the lakes save it from the rigor of an interior climate, yet is it in that invigorating zone of the spells of weather, now warm, now cold, now wet, now dry, in which are found the most prosperous and progressive peoples, the world over. Our state is a part of the physical region of the great lakes. All parts of this area drain to the St. Lawrence river; all parts enjoy the milder climate that comes from the presence of these great bodies of water, loth to heat up under the sun of summer and equally slow in winter to yield up what warmth they have. The great economic distinction of the region lies in the enormous transportation possibilities of broad and deep water ways between the pass over the almost imperceptible divide at Chicago leading to the Mississippi basin and the prairie states and that in the Mohawk valley leading to the Atlantic seaboard and to Europe. It is no coincidence that the growth of the Northwest territory has been parallelled by the expansion of New York, the only Atlantic port connected by an easy pass with the interior of the continent. We observe at once that to study the physical aspects of the state we must consider a wider area than state or country.

Michigan is truly a "Great Lake State": the two peninsulas, many islands, and 3,100 miles of shoreline on four of the Great Lakes give the state a unique location and a diverse physical environment. The natural landscape is largely the result of erosion and deposition of surface materials during the Great Ice Age. Glacial ridges alternate with till plains and lake bottoms to give Michigan a varied topography and great contrasts in soil fertility. The book, through the use of text, photographs, and maps (drawn especially for this volume by Sherman Hollander), stresses the relationships between this varied natural resource base and the economic, social, and political geography of Michigan. Emphasis is placed on the demographic character, the historical background, and the natural and human resources that have led to Michigan becoming one of the principal manufacturing states in the United States. The book also looks at agriculture and recreation and tourism, which, along with manufacturing, are the major bases of the state's economic development. The regional coverage focuses on the urban dominance of Detroit. This comprehensive overview of Michigan geography closes with an analysis of some of the major quality of life issues in the state and a short glimpse into the future.
