New Book Explores Detroit's Best Watering Holes

Canton author Mike Kline traveled to more than 100 bars to write, "Watering Holes: Your Guide To Detroit's Bars, Pubs and Taverns."

CANTON, MI — It was a tough job, but Mike Kline had to visit more than 100 Detroit bars to do research for his book — "Watering Holes: Your Guide To Detroit's Bars, Pubs and Taverns." The Canton author penned the book with the idea of providing a guide to the city’s best places to get a beer or other spirit, according to a Canton Observer report.

“The bars where Kline raised a toast to Detroit are bounded geographically by Warren, the Detroit River, Interstate 96 and Joseph Campau Avenue. He got the idea for his book because friends knew he worked in photography in Detroit and often asked him where to go.”
"My friends wanted to know where the best dive bars are," he said. "They're not looking to spend a lot of money. They're looking for a place where they can spend the least and still have fun."
