Since 1887, Detroit's Eastern Market, the largest open-air wholesale/retail market of its kind in the United States, has been home to an amazing community of farmers, merchants, and food lovers. This book recounts the history of the market and features stories and personal accounts of families who have worked and shopped there for as many as four generations. The authors have updated store hours and added new restaurants to their original listing of the numerous businesses that line the Eastern Market’s streets—and there is now a map to guide your Market adventures. Also with thirteen new recipes, Detroit’s Eastern Market features more than eighty pages of delightful recipes from market retailers, farmers, chefs, and customers.
