Often, -students pursue it with only the written word in hand, in an attempt to -gain a deeper, and more meaningful understanding of it. This is usually -the case because other means of historical relation are not available, -or completely nonexistent. The strict narration of facts is not a -sufficient means alone for broadening one's knowledge of the past. - -Whenever the written word can be complemented with other media, for -example, worthwhile actual photographs, a more complete understanding of -the past is experienced. Literally, a picture is worth a thousand words, -and the student can gain, for himself, a more penetrating insight into -his subject which words alone cannot always provide him. - -In publishing _Michigan's Copper Country In Early Photos_, a pictorial -account of the Copper Country around 1900, the Black Letter Press has -made a more complete understanding of the region possible by -supplementing its written histories with the varied collection of -photographs. The area's setting, its people, and their work are -portrayed. Originally, the book was published as, _Souvenir of the -Copper Country Upper Peninsula of Michigan_. Copies of this original -work are extremely scarce today. - -In his introduction to the original publication, B.E. Tyler, the -publisher, states that the Copper Country is a place of natural beauty, -with the mining of copper from the bowels of the earth as the district's -major industry. This was written in 1903, and the pictures presented in -the volume's pages offer supportive evidence to his words. However, time -has moved on, and much has both changed and remained the same in the -Copper Country. - -Tyler mentions a picture of the Cliff Mining Camp, and relates that the -work has been abandoned, but, "almost every house that was ever erected -there is standing." This is no longer true. All structures have been -dismantled, and all that remains of the once proud and fabulous Cliff -mine are a few poor rock piles. - -The many gabled, and uniquely constructed Quincy Rock House was to be -found in Hancock, and it was reputed to be the most photographed mine -structure of its kind in the country. It was destroyed by fire in 1956. - -The Douglas House, a famous meeting place, and hotel, in Houghton still -remains, although its appearance has been altered, and its surroundings -have changed. - -The Kerredge Theater, in Hancock, was completed in 1902, with some seats -costing as much as forty dollars for a single performance. Popular -shows, Shakespearian plays, and operas, were presented on its stage. - -Copper mining no longer remains the major industry of the area. Once -where many shafts were sunk deep into the earth, and their rockhouses -lined the horizon, only a few remain today as reminders of a bygone era, -standing as ever vigilant sentinels, guarding what may be left of their -once rich copper deposits. Gone are the giant hoisting machines used to -bring copper ore to the surface. Gone are the miners, who labored hard -by candlelight with simple hand tools, replaced by today's modern miner -using his battery operated head lamp, and power machinery when work is -available. Only exploratory and experimental work is presently being -conducted in the Copper Country. - -One aspect of the Copper Country which remains relatively unchanged is -its rugged natural beauty. The sparkling clear deep blue waters of -chilling Lake Superior still crash upon its rocky tree lined shores. A -green mantle of dense forests covers much of the land, which in places -is wild and mountainous. Water still rushes over spectacular falls as it -flows onward toward the world's largest fresh water lake. Past and -present residents, and many visitors, have witnessed the scenic -panorama, with some insisting that the climate of the Copper Country has -an exhilarating, and refreshing therapeutic affect upon them. - -Suggested reading material on the Copper Country might include the -following titles that are considered to be of more than passing -interest: _Red Metal_, by C. Harry Benedict, _Prehistoric Copper Mining -in the Lake Superior Region_, edited by Roy W. Drier, and Octave J. -DuTemple, _Boom Copper_, by Angus Murdock, and _The Cliff_, by Donald -Chaput. Also of worthwhile reading are such historical novels on the -region as, _Where Copper Is King_, by James Wright, published in 1905, -and, _The Long Winter Ends_, by Newton G. Thomas. - -Another beneficial book is, _A True Description of the Lake Superior -Country_, written by John St. John, and originally published in 1846. It -was republished by the Black Letter Press in 1976, and it provides its -readers with a rare and invaluable first hand account of early Copper -Country settings. Of particular interest are the author's descriptions -of the region's geologic development, and of the early copper mines. - -_Michigan's Copper Country In Early Photos_ adds a new dimension to the -historiography of the Copper Country, providing in pictures what the -student may not grasp from the written word. - - Richard A. Cebelak - Grand Rapids, Michigan - March, 1977 - -The simple beauty of the Copper Country of Michigan, the vastness of its -enterprises and the activity of its marts are impressive in their very -nature. Their pictures are more pleasing when left unmarred by wordy -descriptions. Scenes may be absorbed and grasped by the eye which no -language can describe. - -This book is a simple collection of pictures, characteristic of scenes -which are familiar to those acquainted with the Copper Country. The -effort has been put forth to make it as comprehensive as possible. - -The winning of the copper from the earth constitutes the dominant -industry of the district, and is deserving of first place in a -representation of the Copper Country. All features of the industry are -shown--in the depths of the mine; on the surface, where the world's most -massive machinery furnishes power to actuate the air drills and operate -the hoisting cables; in the mills and smelters, where the metal is -refined into copper bullion; along the wharves, where ships are laden -with the product, to carry it to lower lake ports, whence it is -distributed throughout the world. - -Historic points of interest are given. There is a picture of the old -Cliff Mining Camp, one of the earliest, and, in its day, one of the most -populous and prosperous communities in the Upper Peninsula. To-day -almost every house that was ever erected there is standing, most of them -dating back nearly half a century, but the place is deserted--hundreds -of houses with bare walls staring out through bleak windows, and -scarcely a dozen souls to inhabit them. The old mine workings are -abandoned for more profitable deposits of mineral. - -Pictures are given which show the natural beauty of the Copper Country. -Pleasing views are so bountifully bestowed by nature that it is a -difficult task to choose the most impressive. But enough are given to -create a taste for more--a taste that can be gratified to its fullest -only by rambling among the vales and hills, through the forests and -along the banks of the quiet streams and the shores of the mighty -Unsalted Sea. - -The new South Range is thoroughly pictured. This is the young giant -which in the last five years has forged forward and wrought from the -ground which was the rooting place for an unbroken forest a group of -copper mining camps that stand to-day close rivals to the older camps -which have been half a century in the making. - -Such pictures constitute within themselves a story of beauty, power and -pathos which no words can enhance. Those responsible for the book have -drawn from its preparation a wealth of pleasure. Courtesies have been -extended from all sources, in recompense for which the sincerest -expression of appreciation is now extended. May those into whose hands -the book shall come glean from it all the subtle meaning and all the -stirring thoughts which its pictures are capable of inspiring. It will -then be an epic, indeed--a poem, a song, a burst of harmony beyond the -power of words to utter. - - B. E. Tyler, - Publisher, - Houghton, Mich. - - Copyright, 1903, by B. E.
