"Tugboats of the Great Lakes details the history of nearly 550 tugboats on the Great Lakes and their former homes on the West, East and Gulf Coasts, most of which are still in service today.  There are 370 photographs, half Color and half BxW.  The comprehensive text reviews these historic vessels’ fascinating histories from initial construction all the way to their modern day contributions in the thriving maritime industry.  The subjects span all five Great Lakes, contributing waterways, and Seaway System, in both U.S. and Canadian waters."
