The book provides a comprehensive look at the history and operation of the Great Lakes shipping industry, including the types of vessels used, the owners and crews who operated them, and the various cargoes that were transported across the lakes. Curwood's writing style is engaging and informative, drawing on his own experiences as a journalist and author to provide a vivid and detailed picture of life on the Great Lakes. He covers a wide range of topics, including the challenges of navigating the lakes, the dangers of storms and shipwrecks, the economics of the shipping industry, and the role of the Great Lakes in the broader context of American commerce and transportation.Throughout the book, Curwood also includes numerous anecdotes and stories about the people and events that shaped the Great Lakes shipping industry, from the early pioneers who first explored the lakes to the modern-day captains and crews who continue to ply their trade today.
