A must read for anyone interested in great lakes shipping or maritime history."
-Caitlin Cummings, 1st Engineer
Today we live a much different life than our parents and grandparents. When most of us think of boats, the first thing to come to mind might be a sleek ski boat, a sailboat, a bass boat, a cruiser, or some combination or variation of each. Rarely do the work boats; freighters, tanker ships and tugboats come to mind. Those vessels make up the bulk of the commercial traffic on the Great Lakes. As freighter traffic grew on the Great Lakes with the growth of commerce, so did the size and number of ships. Skip Kadar explores tragic shipping disasters brought to life based on research, news reports, survivors, and eyewitness accounts.
From the fate of the 427-foot steamship Henry Steinbrenner in 1953 to the little 56-foot-long tugboat Sport's cold demise during a December night in 1923, Mr. Kadar tells a gripping story of the fight for survival of men and women against the Great Lakes.
