About this product
Product Information
The Dramatic Tales of disaster, misfortune, and folly surrounding each shipwreck connect to stories about the frontier, the environment, immigration, politics, technology, and industry. Join John Odin Jensen for a deeper dive into a transformative chapter of maritime history as he examines a selection of Great Lakes shipwrecks of the wooden age, from the splendor of the palace steamer Niagara to the hulking bulk carrier Frank O'Connor. Mining the archaeological evidence and historic record, he explores how the conception, innovation, and eventual devastation of these doomed vessels fit into larger narratives of the Midwestern and Atlantic maritime frontiers. Featuring the shipwreck photography of the Wisconsin Historical Society's underwater archeology team, this vibrant volume is a must-have for shipping enthusiasts and anyone intrigued by the awesome power of water to shape history.

As described... A+++ on shipping and price... C (and that's being generous) on time. If you have forever and a month of Sundays to wait around then by all means do so. The price was great and the seller communicated wonderfully and the item was packed well so it wasn't damaged during transit all A pluses in my book just took a little bit longer than I anticipated.
