| book description |

Now 200 years into its remarkable history, the University of Michigan remains at the vanguard of what it means to be a great modern public university. The Universityâ€™s Bicentennial in 2017 is an ideal opportunity to reflect on the path that Michigan has taken to get here. The engaging, well-illustrated stories in this book celebrate the progressive vision, dedicated individuals, and groundbreaking moments that helped forge the life-changing institution that the University is today. Snapshots of the Universityâ€™s early years and the founding minds behind them are included alongside engaging narratives about pivotal events like John F. Kennedyâ€™s Peace Corps speech at the Michigan Union and memorable personalities such as â€œDocâ€ Losh, Michiganâ€™s first female Professor of Astronomy and official Homecoming Queen for Life. Titled after the official Bicentennial motto, Always Leading, Forever Valiant is the perfect entry point to the Universityâ€™s 200-year history. The book will appeal to those interested in public institutions and history, along with alumni, students, faculty, and anyone who loves the University of Michigan.
