Quando un implacabile armeggiatore fece rotolare la sua prima carrozza senza cavalli da un garage di Detroit, non poteva prevedere la rivoluzione che avrebbe innescato. Henry Ford incoronò Detroit la Motor City, ma la sua eredità ha gettato anche i semi del suo disfacimento?
Quando Thornton Blackburn e sua moglie arrivarono a Detroit probabilmente pensarono che il peggio fosse alle spalle. Non sapevano che un cacciatore di schiavi fosse sulle loro tracce e che la conseguente lotta per la libertà avrebbe spinto una città già ai limiti della distruzione.
Augustus Brevoort Woodward non era l’idea di normalità di nessuno – nominarsi imperatore romano era solo un esempio – ma aveva la visione di trasformare Detroit nella più grande città del mondo. Sfortunatamente gli uomini più potenti del Michigan avevano altre idee.
Quando lo stesso Joe Louis di Detroit affrontò l'imbattuto tedesco Max Schmeling nel loro secondo incontro iconico, gli americani, bianchi e neri, videro più di un incontro di boxe: fu uno scontro di libertà contro il fascismo. Pochi sanno cosa si è sviluppato dopo la campanella finale, quando una rivalità è diventata una delle amicizie più inaspettate e durature della storia dello sport.

Horrible experience. Was advertised for one price and then charged more than what as advertised. Shady!!!!
Michael knows his Detroit history and truly loves the city. It was a great tour. The tour was extremely interesting and a great start to my trip.
Dear Audrian, we are glad to know that you got an extremely interesting experience with our Hidden History Tour. We would like to have you again in our future events. Please check our website for more information.
We had a fantastic walking tour of Detroit with Michael on Sunday. His knowledge of the city’s history, architecture, neighborhoods, and landmarks was impressive, but what really stood out was his passion for Detroit and his genuine enthusiasm for sharing its story. The tour was both informative and entertaining, with fascinating stories and details that we would have easily missed exploring the city on our own. Michael was engaging, personable, and happy to answer questions along the way. He also shared some great suggestions for places to eat and other things to see while we were in Detroit. The 90 minutes flew by, and we came away with a much better understanding and appreciation of Detroit—both its history and the city it is today. I’ve taken walking tours in other cities, and this ranks among the best. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Detroit, especially if you have limited time and want to really get to know the city.

Michael’s passion for the city of Detroit was contagious to this western Pennsylvania family. He provided entertaining and informational facts of Detroit. He responded well to my many questions. I have done many tours in North American cities. This was one of the best.
Our walking tour with docent Michael Knopf was a wonderful wandering experience. What a wise decision for us! We met and meandered throughout Woodward Avenue learning of Detroit’s history and current events. Michael provided us with delicious dining/ drinking suggestions and offered fun points of interest. Thank you very much Michael.
