"Freighters of Manitowoc" chronicles the building of freight carrying vessels in Manitowoc, Wisconsin. Manitowoc was a tiny fontier town in the 1840s with river entrance on the western shore of Lake Michigan. From these small beginnings, it grew to build and deliver the largest vessels on all of the Great Lakes of the time. In the book's 356 pages, read about the builders themselves, the vessels they built, their yards, how their businesses interrelated to the town, the river, the lake and other waterways of the world. Through the 519 photographs you will view the evolution of ship design and construction technology, exciting launches and freighters built before your eyes from keel blocks, through launch, final fitout and delivery. Read how the hard work and quality work ethic of not only the principle ship builders but the thousands of proud carpenters, sail makers, machinists, shipfitters, welders, riveters, engineers, naval architects, and others made ship owners come to Manitowoc for nearly a century and a half to have their ships built over yards in much larger lake cities.
