In this episode, we discuss two very important aspects of Streeter Lore the letter from Grover Cleveland and the District if Lake Michigan.
Listen to find out the truth about the letter as well as what it said, moreover, I read the District’s Declaration of Independence which is…extra.
Digressions include:
Silver Versus Gold
Whitewashing History
SHOW NOTES:
In my research, I found many conflicting reports. In some articles people said Streeter had two wives other's said four. Some claimed he was a Civil War veteran, other a deserter. As addressed in this episode everything considered to be true about Streeter is incorrect.
Then I found what I consider to be the best researched book.
King of the Gold Coast:: Cap'n Streeter, the Millionaires and the Story of Lake Shore Drive
