"Hungry Waters" by Lowell Thomas transports readers to the heart of a gripping maritime drama, painting a vivid picture of human resilience in the face of nature's wrath. With a masterful blend of storytelling and historical insight, Thomas chronicles the harrowing events of the 1913 Great Lakes storm, a catastrophic tempest that wreaked havoc on ships and lives. Through compelling narratives of survival and sacrifice, the book brings to life the courageous individuals who battled the elements to overcome seemingly insurmountable odds. As the tempestuous waters churn and the tempest rages, "Hungry Waters" captures the tension and emotion of a maritime disaster, while also serving as a tribute to the indomitable spirit of those who dared to challenge the fury of nature. Thomas' evocative prose takes readers on a gripping journey through tragedy and triumph, creating a lasting testament to the power of human endurance and the unforgiving force of the sea.

This is a first edition published in 1937, with illustrations in the form of pictures of the disastrous event this novel is based on. There is a small personalized message on the first page.
