Pioneer Recollections

This little book of "Pioneer Recollections" is published on the urgent solicitation of many friends; it is not intended as a history of Lansing; simply some of the recollections of the author, and dealing for the most part with the pre-historic period of the first ten years of the founding and development of the capitol city of the state of Michigan, together with the faces of some of the more prominent pioneers, men who were identified with its life and growth from the felling of the first forest trees to make way for the now beautiful city of which we are all so justly proud.
