Biographical note
Marlin Bree is a veteran boater and the author of 'Alone Against the Atlantic', 'Wake of the Green Storm', 'Call of the North Wind', and 'In the Teeth of the Northeaster'. He lives in St. Paul, Minnesota.
A former newsman, Marlin Bree built a small sailboat beside his home and sailed it on Lake Superior to explore the the North Shore and Canada's primitive and uninhabited islands of the ancient Voyageurs. It was a boat ride into remarkable adventure: a battle of one man against the inland sea. Here are true tales of dangerous storms, shipwrecks, and an island of silver on the notorious waters of the world's largest freshwater lake. Wake of the Green Storm is an inspiring true tale of seafaring on a last frontier.
Les mer
On July 4, 1999, Marlin Bree was caught in a storm that ripped across the Canadian shores of Lake Superior. Although Bree's boat was damaged, he continued in pursuit of his goal of sailing the largest freshwater archipelago in the world. This book presents his story, along with stories of other boaters' experiences in storms on the Great Lakes.
Les mer
"His evocative narrative is both an adventure . . . and an anecdotal history of the lake. An enjoyable ramble for sailing aficionados." -- Booklist
