If you grew up in Detroit, the word Boblo conjures up memories of good times - boat rides, dancing, rollercoasters - a day of escape that was a ritual for generations.
But the story behind the park was not always idyllic.
Bob-Lo: An Island in Troubled Waters brings to life with vivid detail the numerous changes that swept over the island in the past 120 years.
At the center of this book is the story of its longest-residing private resident who fought to stay on her private slice of island paradise for more than 50 years.
