Going Back to Central: On the Road in Search of the Past in Michigan's Upper Peninsula

Going Back to Central -- On the Road in Search of the Past in Michigan's Upper Peninsula is a journey of discovery --connecting the present with the history of Cornish copper miners in the region. Although the purpose of the author's trip was to honor and celebrate the lives of his Cornish ancestors who came to Central Mine in the 1800s, along the way he savors the autumn splendors of a beautiful and rugged part of the north country and listens for tales of its unique and sturdy residents.

Going Back to Central -- On the Road in Search of the Past in Michigan's Upper Peninsula has been selected as a Michigan Notable Book for 2004 by the Library of Michigan.
