Customer Reviews

Wes knows his stuff

While researching a local shipwreck I found that Wes Oleszewski had already done all the work for me. This book is full of well-researched and well written stories about the men and the ships who were lost on the Great Lakes. Wes goes beyond the facts of the tragedy to get to the real stories -- the lives of the people who were lost. Wes' series is a must have for all serious Great Lakes shipwreck researchers.

great book easy reading very knowledgeable author

I throughly enjoyed this book. I have read several of this authors books and found them very hard to put down. He is good at finding the research and information about each of the boats he is writing about. I am looking forward to reading more of the books he has written. Great Book for anyone interested in the ship wrecks of the Great Lakes.
