Description:

Under a gloomy November sky, SS Edmund Fitzgerald suddenly surrendered to ferocious gale-force winds, plunging to the bottom of Lake Superior, leaving no survivors. Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald looks back to one of the most legendary, mysterious, and controversial shipwrecks of the Great Lakes. In the great battle between humans and nature, the outcome is often tragic and humbling.
“Some sailors believe that a ship’s name is its soul, and that it’s bad luck to name a vessel after one that has gone down. If this is indeed the case, then the legendary lake freighter Edmund Fitzgerald – which sank in Lake Superior on November 10, 1975 – was doomed 75 years before she was even launched.” – excerpt from Elle Andra-Warner’s “Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald”
True stories. Truly Canadian. This book will be especially fascinating for all readers interested in history.
