In second of three installments of the Let’s Go Back series, Frank, Bryan and John pull a few of the most prized pieces from the Hemingway Collection at the Clarke Historical Library on the campus of Central Michigan University. Over the course of 20 years, the Clarke has created one of the most robust collections of Hemingway material anywhere in the country. Through photographs, letters, and family scrapbooks we get a glimpse at what life was like for the Hemingway family (and many others) in Northern Michigan at the turn of the 20th century.
