1805réf. 38811Washington: A. & G. Way 1805. The appeal of Michigan Territory governor William Hull and territorial judge August Woodward to Congress requesting action from them on the deplorable conditions of the proposed capital in Detroit and the status of several peoples found to be inhabiting the territory. The official government of Michigan was set to begin on June 30 1805 but when the Governor arrived he found Detroit nearly entirely destroyed by fire and numerous people both squatting on the ruins and dispersed throughout the nearby area including into the British territory. Hull and Woodward claim that the various treaties signed with the British do not clarify who has proper claim to the land and they add that the continuance of an indulgence for the Wiandot Indians to stay in Maguaga and Brown's town remains in question. They tentatively propose that Congress might make citizens of the Wiandot to settle the matter permanently. An excellent and concise history of the situation in Michigan at the time.

1851réf. 5082Detroit. 1851. The situation in Michigan in the mid-1840's foreshadowed a struggle which became more prominent - and more inequitable - after the Civil War. The Michigan Central Railroad opened the fertile area up for agricultural development by providing transportation but it also put the farmers at the mercy of the line as far as freight rates. In an era before any regulatory control the line played favorites to friends and squeezed the small farmers. The latter responded with sabotage and it was the agrarian vs. technology. An early and important case suggesting much of what was to come on the American landscape. Old calf rebacked. Internally very good. unknown books
