Episode #1240 - \"Historic Shipwrecks and Rescues on Lake Michigan\"

Book Signing
Nov. 30th 6:30PM
Forever Books

A local engineer asked himself the question where did the name "Napier Avenue" come from up in St. Joseph, MI. That question lead to years of research and a book with stories of shipwrecks and rescues that happened along the lake Michigan coast. Courtney talked with Michael Passwater about the book and the journey he took to write it. He's having a book signing at the end of the month at Forever Books in St. Joe.
