Just moved to the area have been soaking up the local history. This book helped explain what Ive been curious about; helped me find where these wonderful attractions are; or once stood. It is a great read; by a local author; who has a vast knowledge of all things notable in this once thriving area on Lake Erie. Cedar Point hasnt always been the main attraction; this book has the pictures history to prove it. Highly recommended!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
