Riveting stories of maritime tragedies on North America's 'Inland Seas'. The Great Lakes have been a stage for the American Revolution and the American Civil War; they have been a bloody battlefield and a watery grave; they have seen greed, politics and misfortune, and incomparable acts of courage and compassion. Many a Midnight Ship brings to life the powerful history of the greatest northern waterway of the North American continent. These fourteen stories bring to life the majesty of the Great Lakes and the tragedy bestowed upon its violent waves. From the 'coffin' ship Atlantic, which foundered in 1852 along with some 300 lives, and which the salvagers say still has millions of dollars worth of gold on board, to the burning of The Erie and some 250 Dutch immigrants, to the violent storm that tore The Algoma apart off Isle Royale, Michigan where crew and passengers clamored for their lives only sixty feet from shore as treacherous currents prevented most of them from reaching land.

Shipwreck stories from along Minnesota’s north shore of Lake Superior and Isle Royale Against the backdrop of the extraordinary history of Great Lakes shipping, Too Much Sea for Their Decks chronicles shipwrecked schooners, wooden freighters, early steel-hulled steamers, whalebacks, and bulk carriers—some well-known, some unknown or forgotten—all lost in the frigid waters of Lake Superior. Included are compelling accounts of vessels destined for infamy, such as that of the Stranger, a slender wooden schooner swallowed by the lake in 1875, the sailors’ bodies never recovered nor the wreckage ever found; an account of the whaleback Wilson, rammed by a large commercial freighter in broad daylight and in calm seas, sinking before many on board could escape; and the mysterious loss of the Kamloops, a package freighter that went down in a storm and whose sailors were found on the Isle Royale the following spring, having escaped the wreck only to die of exposure on the island. Then there is the ill-fated Steinbrenner, plagued by bad luck from the time of her construction, when she was nearly destroyed by fire, to her eventual (and tragic) sinking in 1953. These tales and more represent loss of life and property—and are haunting stories of brave and heroic crews. Arranged chronologically and presented in three sections covering Minnesota's North Shore, Isle Royale, and the three biggest storms in Minnesota’s Great Lakes history (the 1905 Mataafa storm, the 1913 hurricane on the lakes, and the 1940 Armistice Day storm), each shipwreck documented within these pages provides a piece to the history of shipping on Lake Superior.
