Journal Editorial Board
As much as anything, the greater Marquette area’s history is tied to water, specifically Lake Superior.
The big lake offered transportation, food and recreation to the earliest white settlers, as it always had to Native Americans.
With all of that and much more in mind, local author Sonny Longtine has penned “Marquette: A Waterfront Renaissance,” which showcases the city’s 10 miles of shoreline through historical facts, stunning photography and more.
Longtine is well familiar to local readers. He’s authored a series of books on the region including but not limited to “U.P. People: Incredible Stories about Incredible People;” “Marquette: Then and Now;” and perhaps his most popular, “Murder in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.”
