Item History & Price
This listing is for:"History of the Great Lakes"2-Volume SetPublisher: Freshwater Press ReprintCopyright: 1999Hardcover Description: This epic two-volume set is by far the most important series ever written about Great Lakes maritime history. Originally written in 1899, this work lists most of the vessels ever to sail the lakes and catalogs most of the shipwrecks up to that date. It is the most cited reference book in all Great Lakes literature and is amazing in ...both its scope and volume. Volume I tells the story of the Great Lakes and gives the reader a chronological account of developments and wrecks on the lake. Volume II gives biographical sketches of hundreds of prominent marine men. The original 1899 editions of this set are now museum pieces and extremely valuable. Even this 1999 Freshwater Press reprint has become quite rare. Condition: This set is in unused, like new, gift quality condition. BUY WITH CONFIDENCE I NEVER use stock photos.
