4.0 out of 5 stars A true accounting of life on the lakes, October 23, 1999
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Sailor's Logbook: A Season Aboard Great Lakes Freighters (Great Lakes Books) (Paperback)
My father was a Chief Engineer aboard the s/s John G. Munson when he died this past August. His cousin is the author of this book and had mentioned my family in this book. It is a wonderful accounting of life on the lakes. If you enjoy the sailing life or know someone who is a sailor, this is the book for you. Thank you Mark for writing this wonderful book. I only wish dad would have seen it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Didn't want this book to end!, March 9, 2003
By 
Michael Tatman (Des Moines, IA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Sailor's Logbook: A Season Aboard Great Lakes Freighters (Great Lakes Books) (Paperback)
Mark Thompson shares an enjoyable and interesting picture of life aboard today's Great Lakes freighters. You get to know the crew members as you become a part of their work day routine. As the reader, you become anxious to see what each new day has in store. I'm anxious for the sequel.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Season on a Great Lakes Ore Boat, January 19, 2003
By 
Marc Findlay (Joliet, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: A Sailor's Logbook: A Season Aboard Great Lakes Freighters (Great Lakes Books) (Paperback)
This is one of the best books that I have ever read! I could not put it down! If you have any interest in Great Lakes Shipping or life on a Great Lakes Ore Boat read this book! Mark L Thompson does not "Sugar Coat" what life is like on an Ore Boat. He is very open and honest about life in the Great Lakes Shipping Industry. Read this book you won't be sorry!
