What is Ann Arbor Observed : Selections From Then and Now about?
vi, 271 pages : 24 cm, \"Twenty-five years ago Grace Shackman began to document the history of Ann Arbor's buildings, events, and people in the Ann Arbor Observer. Soon Shackman's articles, which depicted every aspect of life in Ann Arbor during the city's earlier eras, became much-anticipated regular stories. Readers turned to her illuminating minihistories when they wanted to know about a particular landmark, structure, personality, organization, or business from Ann Arbor's past.\" \"Packed with photographs from Ann Arbor of yesteryear and the present day, Ann Arbor Observed compiles the best of Shackman's articles in one book divided into eight sections: public buildings and institutions, the University of Michigan, transportation, industry, downtown Ann Arbor, recreation and culture, social fabric and communities, and architecture.\"--BOOK JACKET, Articles from the author's column Then and now originally appeared in the Ann Arbor observer
