Kalamazoo, Michigan, Michigan, Images of America, Paperback Since the arrival of its first settler in 1829, the story of Kalamazoo has been an interesting one.Out of the southwest Michigan wilderness, a small 19th century village quickly blossomed into a 20th century city.

Fortunately, much of Kalamazoo's development has been well-documented through photographs and other visual illustrations.

Gathered from local archives and private collections, most of these rare photographs have never before been published.
