The Wager was excellent. I have the Edmund Fitzgerald book on my Christmas list. That’s just a wild story. Read about the SS Kamloops for another crazy tale. Old Whitey is still aboard.
I haven't tried it yet! I've seen it in stores here in Duluth though — maybe this is the week to do it and pour one out (into my glass) for the true Queen of the Lakes.
I do love a great shipwreck book. I would also recommend "In the Heart of the Sea" about the whaleship Essex, the true story that inspired Moby Dick!
Oh yeah! I don’t know how I forgot that one - one of my favorites!
Thanks for the Rec on Gales of November - it just came available on my library app(good timing)
living in Michigan- I have seen several things on this, but never really dug into it.
My pleasure! It’s so good. I read an early copy of it this summer and it has really stayed with me.

And while you're reading about the Fitz, don't forget to drink some Edmund Fitzgerald. https://www.greatlakesbrewing.com/edmund-fitzgerald/

I'm in Madison. Have yet to make my way to Duluth but did make it up to Whitefish this year and lifted a pint for the 29 men. Have a great weekend!
