For over fifteen years, M. Christine Byron and Thomas R. Wilson have been collecting old postcards and Michigan travel materials that depict Leelanau County. Much of this memorabilia - covering the 1890s to the 1960s - makes up the heart and soul of Vintage Views of Leelanau County. The old photos, old scenes, and old attractions are as much fun today as they were then. Giving the book its life is both the historical text and the sentiments written on the back of many of the wonderful postcards that they have uncovered over the years. What you'll learn is that the more Leelanau County has changed, the more it has stayed the same. And what people loved about Leelanau County in those days is what people love about it these days. And - hopefully - what people will love about it in the future, too.Byron, M. Christine is the author of 'Vintage Views of Leelanau County', published 2002 under ISBN 9781585360857 and ISBN 1585360856.
