This page compiles all of the sites mentioned in Mikel B. Classen’s book Points North into one easy-to-remember web page. Why did we do this instead of giving you direct links in the book? Well, several good reasons as I hope to explain
- Web sites suffer from “internet rot”, about 20% of travel related sites disappear or move without notice each year. The last thing I wanted was for you to buy a book with “dead links” in it! In fact, if you notice anything funky about our links, please contact us immediately.
- Many web sites are from State of Michigan or local government trees. As such, they are often very very long and it is unlikely you could ever type them correctly using a phone, for example
- We will make Special Offers on this page exclusively for Points North readers, how great is that?
This page will be organized by chapter and all chapter numbers that have links will be listed. And now, without further adieu, is the list by chapter:
