Book excerpt: (from the original jacket) Palisades Park is a summer community of 200 cottages scattered throughout the dunes and along the shore of Lake Michigan, seven miles south of South Haven, MI. Since "the place we call Palisades Park" has encompassed a long and interesting story of its own, the book puts our small community into a broader context by including information on the area's geology as well as its Native American and Lumber Era days.
