Mikel B. Classen – Sault Sainte Marie, Michigan
Author, Photographer, and Historian
Recipient of the Historical Society of Michigan’s, 2020 George Follo Award for Upper Peninsula History
News From Mikel: 12/4/2023 – I just finished my last event for the year, don’t worry there will be more next year, and I’m getting settled to finish True Tales 2. This will be a continuation of the first book with more forgotten stories from the Upper Peninsula’s past. In the meantime, my new novel, the Alexandria Code has been just released. This is an action – adventure novel that is a white knuckle ride from the start.
I have started a monthly newsletter that is intended to keep everyone up to date on all of the things going on with books, events, new things on the website and recent acquisitions of historical photographs. If you wish to be put on the newsletter list send your email to mikelclassen@mikelbclassen.com
