Скачать или смотреть LAKE COUNTY, MICHIGAN (1920s to 1992)

LAKE COUNTY, MICHIGAN is heart of Manistee National Forest
which was ultimately created as an integral part of the HURON-
MANISTEE NATIONAL FOREST. It was denuded by the lumbar
barons who among other places built Chicago twice and utilized
the lumber whose growth was primordial White Pine in other ways.
The Civilian Conservation Corps "boys" replanted the area which
was left with 70 feet of sandy loam. They also built bridges, roads
and stabilized the area which is now strictly controlled by the State
of Michigan Department of Natural Resources. Among those prized
resources is the Pere Marquette River, a wild river from which trout
and salmon are harvested. My father served as a Medical Officer in
the C.C.C. ultimately becoming a Major, M.C., Regimental Surgeon,
366th Infantry. He resigned his Commission after 11 years. My
mother restored historic property, helped through utilizing her skills
both in business and medicine to significantly improve the lives of
others. As their daughter with training in Public Health, Pediatrics
we worked together as a team to try to restore the health and
well-being of the community which has unparallelled natural beauty.
