The American Fur Company Store & Dr. Beaumont Museum

Mackinac Island, Northern Michigan

"One street back from the water, away from the fudge crowds, you're looking at a plain white building on Market Street. It's a small museum now. It does not look like the headquarters of the richest man in America, but for a while, that is exactly what it was — and it's also the building where a man got shot in the stomach and accidentally invented modern medicine. Both things happened here."
