"A people that take no pride in the noble achievements of remote ancestors will never achieve anything worthy to be remembered with pride by remote generations."-MACAULAY.

PREFACE
All history is, perforce, a merciless abridgment, and yet too much can never be written con- cerning any nation, any people-since each contribution must have a definite value. In the offering of this compendium of history and biography, the publishers lay claim not to any amplification of data in the annals of Detroit and Wayne county, but rather to the condensed, narrative presenta- tion of the history of a section whose records bear the graceful tales of romance and the sterner burdens of definite accomplishment. In the collation of the generic history, recourse has been had to the most reliable authorities, and the publishers have been most fortunate in securing in this department of the work the co-operation of Mr. Clarence M. Burton, than whom none has ever had more intimate and thorough knowledge of the history of Michigan and whose reputation in the field of historic research is especially notable. Mr. Burton has not only given careful revision to all subject matter in the general history but has also offered a most valuable personal contribu- tion, in the chapters relative to the war of 1812 and conditions existing at that period. These chapters are definitely credited to him in the initiation thereof. The form in which the history is presented is believed to have much of individuality and originality, so that the record can not fail of cumulative value as a source of information and as offering a concise narrative, interesting to the reader who has no desire for mere detail and intimate research. The functions of the bio- graphical, industrial and financial departments of the publication are such as offer their own justification and add materially to the intrinsic value of the work.
