Organized by arrow_forward_ios Rochester-Avon Historical Society

On Thursday, Sept. 7 at 7 p.m., the Rochester-Avon Historical Society welcomes local author Gerald Van Dusen at the Rochester Hills Museum on Van Hoosen Farm. Sometimes you have to do field research that includes interviewing informants (see Van Dusen's books, Detroit's Birwood Wall, Sojourner Truth Housing Riots), but sometimes, the topics come to you (Detroit's Lost Stove Industry). Learn how Van Dusen has dug up some of Michigan’s more interesting historical tales.
