BOOK: Global Journeys in Metro Detroit

If only every city had such a fantastic guidebook! To be fair, not every city has such rich cultural diversity as Detroit, which is much-maligned but far too infrequently celebrated, as in this tome.

Global Journeys in Metro Detroit: A Multicultural Guide to the Motor City features chapters about communities rooted in the Americas, Europe, Africa and the Middle East, and Asia. The book provides maps, restaurant listings, information about events and exhibits, interesting cultural tips, history and more. Everything is broken down into bite-size bits, and whether you use it as a guide to exploring new places or simply leave it out as a bathroom reader, you are bound to learn something.

Written by native Detroiters with help from Metro Detroit institutions, scholars and companies, and a preface by then-mayor Dennis Archer, this book is the real Detroit deal!
