Product Information
The Great Lakes were America's first superhighway before railroad lines and roads arrived in the late nineteenth century. This book tells the story of the ships and boats on which the United States, barely decades old, moved to the country's middle and beyond, established a robust industrial base, and became a world power, despite enduring a bloody Civil War. The "five sisters," as the Great Lakes came to be called, would connect America's far-reaching regions in the century ahead, carrying streams of Irish, German, and Scandinavian settlers to new lives, as the young nation expanded west. Initially, schooner fleets delivered passengers and goods to settlements along the lakes, including Chicago, Milwaukee, and Green Bay, and returned east with grain, lumber, and iron ore. Steam-driven vessels, including the lavish "palace" passenger steamers, followed, along with those specially designed to carry coal, grain, and iron ore. The era also produced a flourishing shipbuilding industry and saw recreational boating advance. In text and photographs, this book tells the story of a bygone era, of mariners and Mackinaw Boats, schooners and steamboats, all helping to advance the young nation westward.

Reviews
This rousing, comprehensive, and meticulously researched book is a brilliant addition to the literature of the Great Lakes, and I can't think of anyone more qualified to write it than George Jepson. His stories of the most colorful vessels ever to ply the lakes, and the equally colorful people who sailed them, will fascinate anyone interested in maritime history., Author George Jepson shares genuinely fascinating details of Great Lakes maritime history, from immigration and settlement more than 300 years ago to the evolution and development of merchant ships and the men who inspired that centuries-long process. Jepson, a capable writer, and historian, also explores secrets behind his own passion for the subject, not unlike many of us, who don't fully understand just what inspires us as well. Learning more about our own family ties and experiences brings history back to life. Enjoy his inspiring summary of regional American history and look for your link to that drama., Author George Jepson shares genuinely fascinating details of Great Lakes maritime history, from immigration and settlement more than 300 years ago to the evolution and development of merchant ships and the men who inspired that centuries-long process.
