Historic Mackinac(Makinaw) Island
The players in Michigan's early history were Jesuit priests, French fur
traders, native American Indians, British military men, and American adventurers.
Explorers first came to this region attracted by
man's natural curiosity to know what is beyond the next river bend or over
the hill on the horizon. Of course, the dreams of riches and glory
were also motivating factors in getting explorers to push themselves and
their followers to the extremes of physical hardship and danger.
