The Gales of November is by John U. Bacon. A marvelous nonfiction book! This book tells the story of the S. S. Edmund Fitzgerald and the 29 men who went down with her on the Great Lakes in 1975. The tale of the ship was immortalized in the song by Gordon Lightfoot. This is a moving look at Great Lakes shipping, but especially the men who served on the "Fitz" and their families. A Reader's Corner Highly Recommended Read.
Ratings: 11th grade - 9 out of 10.
