The project-the longest total suspension bridge in the world-would span the Starits of Mackinac where winds exceed eighty miles an hour and ice windrows reach a height of forty feet. It would connect two largely rural communities with a combined population of less than four thousand and would require the largest bond issue ever proposed for the construction of a bridge. Little wonder that some Wall Street investors labeled the proposition as ludicrous. Nonetheless, the Mackinac Bridge became a reality.

"This is a work of fiction. I make no claim on Dame History other than to use teh characters and events She has so generoulsly provided. My primary concern in writing this novel has been to bring the story of Michilimackinac to life and to rescue its ghosts from teh penitential fires of obscurity. On occasion, this task has required some 'truth enchacement' - what writers like to call 'poetic license.' What happens in this book is very closely to what really occurred, but to me, the 'sense' of drama is more crucial to understanding than the accurate portraya of individual lives. The whole, in other words, is superior to its parts. I have supplied the dialogue and applied some make-up, but "the play's the thing." AUTHOR'S NOTE.
