About the Book
The book covers well-known Great Lakes vessels such as the Edmund Fitzgerald, the Niagara, and the Walk-in-the-Water, alongside lesser-known ships including the cargo schooners Moonlight and Minnedosa and the trend-setting lake freighter R.J. Hackett. It also touches on the dangers the lakes have posed to shipping, including the disappearance of the Griffon and the sinking of the Pere Marquette 18.
