Frank truly is a visionary. One is quickly transported back in time to the 19th century. when the Keweenaw produced 85 percent of the Nations copper. Frank makes the history of "copper country" come alive: the sounds of the immigrants arriving. the smells of pasties wafting from lunch pails descending into the deep mine shafts. the tremors from the strikes of 1913 caused by unfair labor conditions. His enthusiasm in relation to rehabilitating and interpreting the historic properties scattered across the park is contagious. Thanks to Frank. visitors to the Keweenaw can truly experience what it was like to be part of the mining community during the industrial revolution.
