Excerpt from Michigan, a Summer and Health Resort State: A Directory of Michigan Summer Resorts, Mineral Springs and SanitariaThere is no doubt that a large number of the smaller resorts in Michigan cannot be mentioned on account of the inability or neglect of persons interested to forward the desired information to the Board. So widely were the circular letters spread, and so persistent have been the efforts of the office of this Board to secure all the information relative to all the resorts that it seems probable that, had the persons connected with summer resorts been sufficiently interested to have desired representation here, they could have done so. It is therefore, the fault of interested persons if their resorts have escaped notice.The cities in the State, unless they were essentially summer resorts, -have been ommited from this publication, not only for the reason that the larger cities generally publish such information as will exhibit at length the facilities for business and the healthful conditions in a much more detailed manner than can be done in this publication, but also for the reason that it is intended to restrict the information in this publication to localities which in themselves are essentially summer resorts, or possess health-giving mineral springs, or are the localities of sanitaria which are resorts for persons seeking health. (the public asylums of the State, as those for the care of the insane, blind, deaf and dumb, idiotic, also those for the incarceration of persons who have violated the laws of the State, the prisons and reformatories, are not included in this publication.)About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
