Sandvick.While shipyards on the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf Coasts are most often credited with wartime production, the forgotten “Fourth Coast” of the Great Lakes region also contributed mightily to this indispensable effort. ThisImages of Americavolume travels to the western edge of Lake Superior where Minnesota and Wisconsin shipyards (in Duluth and Superior, which sprang from nearly nothing in 1939) manufactured more than 200 vessels of ten varieties, each one making a 2,000+ mile journey to the ocean and off to battle. 128 pages, 165 B&W photos, 6½”x 9¼”, softcover.
