Lives and Legends of the Christmas Tree Ships

This author did a great job of presenting ALL of the facts available, whether they supported the glossy legend, or not. I thought I knew the story well, but I learned a lot of new facts previously withheld. An excellent read for Wisconsin, Great Lakes, regional lore and sailing enthusiasts.
