Autorenporträt
Billy Harmon Rosa, the grandson of Esther (White) Morse, was born in the big white farmhouse of Esther and William Morse in Almira Township, Benzie County, Michigan. The stories that Esther told of her growing-up years on North Manitou remained in Billy's memory. Billy was raised around the farm and learned lifelong skills from his grandparents and great-grandparents. After Esther's passing in 1994, he knew he had to preserve the history of those eight years that was so memorable to Esther, as well as her love for Lake Michigan.
