From the Michigan Woods is the real story of a man born and raised in America's rural Midwest. Part one begins in the Great Depression and spans sixty years of experiences, toil and accomplishments well beyond the horizons of his origin. While it chronicles his attention to moral principles, the power of faith and positive thinking, and a dedicated work ethic, it is honest about the consequences of missteps and impetuous actions. Ed Kress's life journey dealt with many challenges and tragedies as he stayed focused on raising a family, finding a professional career, becoming licensed to practice landscape architecture, and attaining a leadership position. The historic value of this piece goes beyond its main purpose to inform his descendants and those interested in Kress Family legacy. His circumstances and activities along the way are aligned with documented events, prominent places, and important people. It records key details about his personal life, his contributions to the design of California's park and transportation infrastructure, and his influence on policy for transportation enhancements in general. About the Author Born in Clare County, Michigan, Edward N. Kress received his Bachelor of Science degree in Landscape Architecture from Michigan State University. Kress is a registered landscape architect in the state of California, an emeritus member of the American Society of Landscape Architects, as well as a member of the Stonegate HOA in Davis, California and The American Legion. In his free time, Kress enjoys metal detecting, photography, collecting diecast toys, and traveling in his RV. Kress and his late wife Pattie have two children, three grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren.
