Every shipwreck has a story that extends far beyond its tragic end. The dramatic tales of disaster, heroism, and folly become even more compelling when viewed as junction points in history--connecting to stories about the frontier, the environment, immigration, politics, technology, and industry. In Stories from the Wreckage, John Odin Jensen examines a selection of Great Lakes shipwrecks of the wooden age for a deeper dive into this transformative chapter of maritime history. He mines the archeological evidence and historic record to show how their tragic ends fit in with the larger narrative of Midwestern history. Featuring the underwater photography of maritime archeologist Tamara Thomsen, this vibrant volume is a must-have for shipping enthusiasts as well as anyone interested in the power of water to shape history.

Good heels
Size: 11, Color: Pink/Pat, Size: 11, Color: Pink/Pat
Comfortable heels. I got the pink ones. I’m a 10.5 womens so I ordered the size 11 and it’s a tad too big so I might order a second pair in a 10 and see how they fit. One star taken off because there was glue on random parts of them but it came off easy. Also, the threads on the sole where they stitched it on are a bit loose but not a problem. Otherwise they are good quality heels.

Good purchase, no issues and made my feet look beautiful
Size: 8.5, Color: Black/Nubuck
I spent a year walking around S. Korea in heels and boots, spent many more in the beauty industry and my whole life running for sport so I have experience with my feet in shoes...these are golden for me. Ordered 8.5 and they fit well, not uncomfortable for long periods and adjustable for my smaller ankles. They were grippy and flexed well going into an incline while walking. My feet did not slide as I walked downhill so my toes stayed within the sandaled heel. I'm pretty light on my feet and these shoes were pleasantly light as well. What I liked the most is that they were packaged well in their own shoe bags. Would purchase again in other colors.
