[History Hounds] Highway to History: Detroit’s Middle Rouge River with Kathy Bliger, Friends of the Governor Warner Mansion

Henry Ford used the Middle Rouge River as an industrial sewer, but the river had a wide-ranging impact on Michigan from early exploration to fishing and the lumber industry. Join us for a metaphorical paddle up the Rouge, past the burial site of Chief Tonquish, ghost towns, and factories.
