 The Beginings and Tales of the Lake Erie Islands by Jessie Martin

People often think that the Lake Erie Islands are all a part of Canada, but most of them are indeed part of the United States, and the loyalty of those who have served their country confirm this fact. Through much study and research, Mrs. Martin has learned that the history of the various islands has played a unique part in national history from early exploration of America into the time of the War of 1812, and on through the Civil War. Many local monuments attest the patriotism of island boys in wars that followed. Through a collection of personal and historic stories, Mrs. Martin assembles a book that tells the stories of the Lake Erie Islands, through the eyes of an islander and schoolteacher on Kelleys Island. As many of their tales tell you, a real islander, as the natives are often called, have learned to cope with and conquer most of the challenges they face.
