Titanic sank in 1912 & the stories of amazing survival & tragic loss made the ocean liner famous. Titanic’s discovery in 1985 made the ship legendary.
Likewise, the Lake Michigan shipwrecks in this program became even more famous after their discoveries than at the time of their losses, gaining notoriety as historic attractions, archaeological sites, & in some cases, over bold salvage attempts or precedent-setting legal battles.
Author & explorer Valerie van Heest will take you back in time to experience the careers & tragic sinkings of these ships, then beneath the lake to participate in the triumphant discovery & exciting exploration of their remains.
Registration opens June 4. This program will be offered as part of #YourMDL's summer reading program.
