  Diane Rockall\nBook Description:&nbsp\; Pictures and descriptions of bu
 ildings and homes in the Historic District\, Bealtown\, Orchard Heights\
 , Cabbage Town and Points of Interest.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;\nImages of America 
 &ndash\; Novi \nAuthor:&nbsp\; Barbara G. Louie\nBook Description:&nbsp\
 ; From a peaceful farming community to a thriving commercial suburb\, No
 vi\, Michigan\, has undergone many periods of dramatic change\, creating
  the rich history that is explored in this volume. This collection of ov
 er 200 photographs provides a fascinating record of the development of N
 ovi through the 19th and 20th centuries. In the early days of westward e
 xploration\, the fertile land surrounding Detroit attracted the first se
 ttlers of Novi. The town grew quickly after the 1825 opening of the Erie
  Canal\, and by 1830\, a bustling business district had emerged. The maj
 or changes came in the 1950s\, with the building of freeways that cut di
 rectly through the heart of Novi. The sudden easy access to Detroit and 
 Lansing ensured the town's future as a true American suburb. Shopping ce
 nters soon followed in the tire tracks of the freeway\, and the area rap
 idly expanded.\nSponsored by the Northville Historical Society\n&nbsp\;\
