Customer Reviews

Very informative collection

Being from the Great State of Michigan, anything dealing with the lakes has held interest for me for years. Many trips to the North would not have been complete without a stop at the Soo locks to watch the huge boats traverse through the locks. Unfortunately, shipwrecks are an integral part of life on the lakes. Wes Oleszewski has written a very interesting book, with photos when available, best guess sketches when appropriate, which added to the book greatly. While I do agree that he at times takes "poetic license" with the narrative, I found that it only added to the book, that it did not detract from it. One could almost put yourself in the pilot house, galley or engine room, and feel a part of the crew. I will definitely read more books on this subject written by this author.
