Settlers populated the city and ambitiously founded a tiny lumbering village, which soon developed into a regional hub of the lumbering industry. Nearly a century after it was settled, Midland County experienced an oil boom, and consequently became the state's leader in oil production, bringing prosperity and further industrialization to the area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn their previous book, Midland: The Way We Were, Virginia Florey and Leona Seamster documented the significant people and places that have shaped Midland's rich history. In their second installment, Midland: Her Continuing Story, they have included the history of neighboring towns-Averill, Sanford, Coleman, Hope, and Edenville-that played a significant role in the lumbering era. Through nearly 200 historical photographs and a collection of unprecedented personal stories, Florey and Seamster again explore this fascinating region and focus on its proud heritage as an industrial leader.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arcadia Publishing (SC)","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":67804687401111,"sku":"9780738520407","price":1769.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780738520407.webp?v=1790698976","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/midland-her-continuing-story-9780738520407","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
