Meet a man who was a medical doctor, a geologist, and a surveyor who also knew botany, zoology, and chemistry. Douglass Houghton was all of these, even though he stood barely five feet, four inches tall.

Tichelaar, PhD and award-winning author of The Mysteries of Marquette'Deborah K Frontiera paints the life of Douglass Houghton in an engaging and masterful way, filling the pages with glimpses into what life would have looked like for one of Michigan’s greatest pioneers.
