1 comments about Michigan: Out on a Limb/Over Her Head/Seasons/Secrets Within (Heartsong Novella Collection).
- I WAS DISAPPOINTED IN THIS BOOK AS A WHOLE. THE STORYLINES WERE FINE. THE LEAD MALE CHARACTERS IN THE FIRST THREE STORIES WERE WHIMPY AND WEAK AND THE LEAD FEMALES WERE WHINEY. THE FOURTH STORY 'SECRETS WITHIN' WAS MUCH BETTER. THE CHARACTERS WERE STRONG. EVEN THOUGH LAINE HAD PROBLEMS IN HER LIFE AND THINGS IN HER PAST WITH WHICH SHE HAD TO DEAL, SHE DIDN'T WHINE. JEFF WAS SELF CONFIDENT AND SELF ASSURED. THE STORYLINE WAS INTRIGUING AND SUSPENSEFUL. I'VE ORDERED THE BOOK 'SECRETS WITHIN' TO ADD TO MY COLLECTION. IT'S WORTH READING AGAIN.

5 comments about Michigan Atlas and Gazetteer (State Atlas & Gazetteer).
- This is better than a collection of county maps! The state is divided up into sections and you can easily follow a road or trail across the whole state! Highly recommended for "taking the long way home"!
- Although the books detail looks impressive, when you get onto the small back roads, where you really need detailed information, the maps too many times are not reliable and not accurate. They show roads where none exist, roads that do exist are not on the map, road names are often wrong, and all sorts of other innaccuracies.
- This book is good for the southern half of the lower penninsula, but it is lacking in the Northern half from what I have found. I too have discovered that it shows roads where there are none, doesn't show roads that are there, and quite frequently (probably 30%) has the wrong road name. Don't venture into Norther Michigan and depend on this map or you'll end up in the middle of a National forest lost with out a reliable map to get you out. However, it is usually accurate in regards to highways and most main county roads.
- I'm sorry to see some of my fellow Michiganders give this gazetteer a poor review, because I think it is excellent. My mother has a fear of driving on the interstate highways, so she's getting a copy for Christmas. And imagine how much better your vacations could be if you took to the back roads!
- Exploring the U.P. and northern lower Michigan has become a weekend tradition for myself and my friends over the past year or two, and since picking up a copy of this book, our DeLorme Atlas has become dogeared from all the use it has gotten. There is simply no better map in existence unless you have access to USGS maps (and those aren't very portable). With this atlas and a GPS you could be knocked out and dropped anywhere in Michigan, and when you came to, you could find your way out. Even without a GPS it is an incredible resource. This is, quite simply, THE definitive Michigan atlas. Accept no substitute.
