Whether you live in Detroit already, are thinking about moving to Detroit, live in Southeast Michigan or you're just curious to learn more about the Motor City, you should read Aaron Foley's first book. "How to Live in Detroit Without Being a Jackass" is much more than just a guidebook to the largest city in Michigan.
