About this product

Product Information

From the Indian canoe to the largest ships, this fascinating book carries the reader through three centuries of marine growth and adventure on the Great Lakes. A classic long out of print, the volume is now available in this revised and expanded edition, which portrays the sweep of history on the Great Lakes through story and illustration. The fur trade, naval battles, the rise and fall of the great passenger ships, and the development of huge cargo carriers are portrayed in vivid detail. The history of the Great Lakes is seen through the eyes of the courageous men who sailed the Lakes as well as through the sharp eyes of travelers such as Margaret Fuller and Charles Dickens. The text, historic drawings and photos portray every vessel and event of importance in 300 years of ships and men on the Great Lakes.

  • Ships of the Great Lakes Review

    I bought this book because I live on the shore of Lake Erie and frequently watch the freighters of today. I am curious about the history of the ships that traveled the Great Lakes over the years. My company also uses the name "Great Lakes" in it's title so I will have the book in our office for customers to browse. The book is a good chronicle of the ships that have worked the Great Lakes and is very interesting.

  • a very compleat and interesting history of the great lakes.

    This is a well written and researched history book. It contains great photographs and prints. I would buy it again, but in hard cover.
