    Michigan Tourism and the Missing Winter

    Michigan Tourism and the Missing Winter
    Rose White, MLive: "Unseasonably warm weather, little snowfall and muddy trails have hollowed out the winter tourism industry across the Upper Peninsula. This crisis has devastated the small communities that rely on a thick blanket of snow to keep the economy humming. Although visitor numbers peak in summer, winter plays a vital role in tiding businesses over between shoulder seasons."

    Ep. 498 – Hunting Big-Water Divers Jay Anglin

    Ep. 498 – Hunting Big-Water Divers Jay Anglin

    Host Chris Jennings is joined by Jay Anglin and Jeremy Ullmann, owner and operator of Mi Guide Service, which offers big-water diving duck hunts in Michigan. Ullmann explains what a day hunting with his outfit looks like and how hunters should prepare to hunt divers. Anglin offers his experience growing up hunting divers on Lake Michigan and surrounding lakes, including shotshell recommendations and shooting techniques. Often overlooked by hunters, diving duck hunting can offer spectacular decoying shots and an abundance of divers on Lake St. Clair, Lake Michigan, and Lake Huron make this Upper Midwest hunting style as unique as it is exciting.

    We Kept Our Towns Going: The Gossard Girls in Michigan's Upper Peninsula

    We Kept Our Towns Going: The Gossard Girls in Michigan's Upper Peninsula

    Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is known for its natural beauty and severe winters, as well as the mines and forests where men labored to feed industrial factories elsewhere in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. But there were factories in the Upper Peninsula, too, and women who worked in them. In We Kept Our Towns Going, Phyllis Michael Wong tells the stories of the Gossard Girls, women who sewed corsets and bras at factories in Ishpeming and Gwinn from the early twentieth century all the way into the 1970s. 

    As the Upper Peninsula’s mines became increasingly exhausted and its stands of timber further depleted, the Gossard Girls’ income sustained both their families and the local economy. During this time the workers showed their political and economic strength, including a successful four-month strike in the 1940s that capped an eight-year struggle to unionize. 

    Drawing on dozens of interviews with the surviving workers and their families, this book highlights the daily challenges and joys of these mostly first- and second-generation immigrant women. It also illuminates the way the Gossard Girls navigated shifting ideas of what single and married women could and should do as workers and citizens. From cutting cloth and distributing materials to getting paid and having fun, Wong gives us a rare ground-level view of piecework in a clothing factory from the women on the sewing room floor. 

    PHYLLIS MICHAEL WONG has held roles as a historian, an educator, and thirty-year member of the university level academic world, including as First Lady at Northern Michigan University (2004–12) and San Francisco State University (2012–19).

    We Kept Our Towns Going: The Gossard Girls of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is available at msupress.org and other fine booksellers. Phyllis will be speaking in Gwinn, Michigan, on April 12. On April 13 at 6:30 PM at the Marquette Regional History Center in Marquette, Michigan. On Thursday, April 14, in the afternoon at Northern Michigan University. Please see the show notes for more information about these talks in the show notes.

    Architectural Missionary: D. Fred Charlton in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, 1887-1918

    Architectural Missionary: D. Fred Charlton in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, 1887-1918

    The first and most prolific professional architect to live in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, D. Fred Charlton used Lake Superior sandstone to craft distinctive buildings throughout the UP. Born in England and trained as a civil engineer, Charlton arrived in Detroit in the late 1870s. There he sought work as a draftsman. Like many of his peers, Charlton had no formal training as an architect, and he learned his trade at several prominent firms. In 1887, Scott & Company sent him to Marquette to open a branch office. Three years later, Charlton opened his own firm, and over the next twenty-eight years, he designed more than four hundred buildings, including residences, commercial structures, schools, courthouses, and churches throughout the region. These buildings offer valuable insights both into the tastes of Americans before the World War I and into the evolution of the architectural profession. Deftly adapting national trends, Charlton provided Upper Peninsula communities with modern structures worthy of any place in the nation. Many of his buildings remain to this day, monuments to the skill of this English-born architect who made a place for himself upon the shores of Lake Superior. Architectural Missionary is a fascinating and informative history of Charlton’s work and of architecture in the upper Midwest.

    Steven C. Brisson to discuss the life and work of D. Fred Charlton. Brisson is the director of Mackinac State Historic Parks, vice chair of the Association for Great Lakes Maritime History, and a former board member of the Michigan Humanities Council.

    Architectural Missionary is available at msupress.org  and other fine booksellers. You can connect with the press on Facebook and @msupress on Twitter, where you can also find me @kurtmilb.

    Mason and Megan Young came all the way from North Carolina last week and spent some time here with us in Michigan. We traveled up to Mackinac Island and then onto the Upper Peninsula and visited Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Tahquamenon Falls, and White Fish Point. We got to spend some time together in Kalamazoo and luckly got to catch day one of Hotrod Magazine's Drag Week event at US131 Motorsports Park in Martin, MI. So thankful Mason and Megan came up and got to spend some time with us! Can't wait to do some more traveling together soon!
