| Publisher Description: Enjoying reading about incidents of ships and vessels? Grab this copy today to find out more about Lake George's ship accidents and the remaining at the bottom of the lake. Lake George is bustling with boaters, swimmers, fishermen, and many others, enjoying its scenic, quintessentially Adirondack shores. But the depths below hide a whole other world--one of the shipwrecks and lost history. Entombed are remnants of Lake George's important naval heritage, such as the legendary Land Tortoise radeau, which sank in 1758. Other wrecks include the steam yacht Ellide and the first famed Minne-Ha-Ha. These waters hold secrets, too, like the explanation behind the 1926 disappearance of two hunters. After years of exploration across the lake's bottomland, the authors - an underwater archaeologist and an archeological diver present the most intriguing discoveries among more than two hundred known shipwreck sites. |
