Small businesses are the linchpin of many communities-especially in rural towns, where the loss of farms has upended their economic viability and identity. This book offers a journey into independent businesses in rural Michigan, as told by the owners. Their common threads are woven together with interviews and photography, a mosaic of creativity, talent, and above all, resilience in an age of conformity and consolidation.
