Every year, the Library of Michigan selects twenty notable books, either written by a Michigan author or about Michigan or the Great Lakes. Each title speaks to our state's rich cultural, historical, and literary heritage and proves without a doubt that some of the greatest stories are found in the Great Lakes State.
