Ecorse Along the Detroit River

Picture
I have written a second book about Ecorse called Ecorse Along the Detroit River.  My purpose in writing the book was to use the invaluable photographs of early Ecorse and its people that survive in scattered family and organization archives and attempt to tie them together into a coherent theme that tells at least part of the story of Ecorse. I also wanted to highlight the impact of Ecorse on the Detroit River and vice versa. I hope you enjoy it.
