About this listen

Albert and Colleen share the story of the Edmund Fitzgerald, the largest ship on the Great Lakes until its sinking in a terrible storm in November of 1975. All 29 souls on board were lost. "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald", a song written and performed by Gordon Lightfoot, made this deadly event even more famous.

Unfortunately, for copyright reasons, we could not play the song on our podcast. You can listen to it here.

We want to thank Mike Barry (Albert's grandfather) for his portrayal of the Captain's final transmission.

We asked AI to generate an image of the ship battling the storm and are sharing it on our podcast website: curiousworldhistory.com
