MARQUETTE — The Marquette History Center will have maps of the Great Lakes and Marquette County on display from June 23 through Jan. 31.

Maps are a valuable tool for seeing history at work. They have been used as an aid to all types of transportation from steamboat routes to today’s single track bike trails. They are also used as a marketing tool, for reference, and entertainment.

Patrons can see how mapmakers have sometimes misled their viewers and how the landscape and surroundings have changed.
