Engaging and informative. I do wish the author would stick to a narrative style. Some of the chapters are chronological and others jump back and forth in time.

I’ve never seen Lake Michigan when it’s whipped up and stormy; hard to imagine it becomes so violent, especially in November. So many shipwrecks occurred because the owners were more concerned with profit than safety. Many fascinating stories, although since they can stand alone, much is repeated.

There is great research done on this novel about the ship wrecks on Lake Michigan. I found it very informative.
I received this ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Very insightful accounts of several significant shipwrecks the have occurred on the Great Lakes. A must have book for anyone interested in the history of the Great Lakes.

An interesting look at some early year maritime disasters on Lake Michigan. While most are centered on poor choices made during bad weather, several o0thers look at non-storm related events. The stories are interesting; however, it seems like the author rushed through some of the stories or did not research the events thoroughly. That said, it was a quick, in formative read that the maritime fan will enjoy.
Thank you to #NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

Stayed up late to Read this in a night, I really enjoyed this book. I would read more books by this author

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC.
I love lighthouses, so shipwrecks have always been something that really intrigued me sonI was very excited to read this book. All of this author's other books are about shipwrecks on the Great Lakes, so now I need to go and check out his other books.
The cover of this book is so beautiful, I'd absolutely hang it up on my wall as art.
Every chapter of this book is a self contained story about a specific shipwreck so it's easy to read them as individual little chunks. It's also a short book, so it's easy enough to read the whole thing in one sitting too.
The storytelling is great and the book overall is very well written.
