With a focus on Wisconsin and Michigan, Great Ships on the Great Lakes explores the history of the region's rivers, lakes, and inland seas--and the people and ships who navigated them, from the first peoples in birch bark canoes to schooner crews of the 1800s to present-day Coast Guard rescue boats. Using illustrations, maps, sonar images, and color photographs, upper elementary readers read tales of danger and rescue on the low seas, and follows as underwater archaeologists uncover long lost shipwrecks in the Great Lakes.
