Excerpt from Michigan Bibliography, Vol. 1: A Partial Catalogue of Books, Maps, Manuscripts and Miscellaneous Materials Relating to the Resources, Development and History of Michigan From Earliest Times to July 1, 1917; Together With Citation of Libraries in Which the Materials May Be Consulted, An The present volume is almost entirely the Work of Mr. Floyd B. Streeter, Archivist of the Michigan Historical Commission, who brings to the work a trained mind and who has here done an able service for the people of Mich igan. It would be strange however if no defects should be found. In most eastern States and in many western States, like illinois, -wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa much work has been done along this line, to serve as a guide in these states, but Michigan up to this time is practically a virgin field for the bibliographer. Starting with the purpose of making a complete bibliography of Michigan, it later seemed best to limit the work to certain definite lines. This was imperative, on account of the vastness of the material, if the work was to be held within reasonable limits. The decision was made to cover the titles of all printed materials, maps and atlases relating directly to Michigan included in the Library of Congress, the Detroit Public Library, the Grand Rapids Public Library, the Michigan State Library, the General Library of the University of Michigan, experiment station bulletins in the Library of the Michigan Agricultural College, and the maps in the Port Huron Public Library and Library of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin, - also the manuscript materials in the Burton Historical Collection, - all Michigan materials accessioned in these libraries before July 1, 1917. These sources have provided the work with over entries, including a thousand maps and atlases and two thousand volumes of manuscript. They do not however include much of the materials in newspapers, magazines. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
