Summary "For centuries, the Great Lakes have been important channels for shipping and trade. While modern technology and safety measures have made the lakes much safer for ships today, the often-stormy waters have resulted in thousands of shipwrecks throughout history. This captivating book tells the stories of some of these wrecks, such as the Edmund Fitzgerald, Argo, and SS Eastland."-- Provided by publisher.
