Discover the remarkable journey of Douglass Houghton, Michigan's first state geologist, who utilized his diverse expertise in medicine, geology, botany, zoology, and chemistry during the 1830s and 1840s. Standing at just five feet, four inches tall, Houghton ventured into the unknown wilderness of both peninsulas, uncovering the potential resources of a burgeoning state. Written by Deborah K. Frontiera, this audiobook offers a glimpse into Houghton's significant contributions to Michigan's development.
