Lost on the Lakes
Shipwrecks of Berrien County, Michigan

by Robert C. Myers

This book brings to life the often harrowing accounts of the ships that were lost off Berrien County. The accounts provide an excellent overview of the conditions that made 19th-century Great Lakes navigation partiicularly treacherous. Lost on the Lakes not only captures the romance and excitement of the area's numerous shipwrecks, but describes the people, the resources and the industries that made Berrien Coutny's history so rich and colorful.

277 pages, Illustrated

Available for $17.99 plus postage.
