SS Eastland: Titanic of the Great Lakes [Registration Req.]

SS Eastland: Titanic of the Great Lakes [Registration Req.]

Ages 12+
Join Historian Andrew Kercher and examine the historical past of our Great Lakes State! The SS Eastland was the greatest loss of life in a maritime disaster on the Great Lakes when she flipped onto her side in the Chicago river in 1915. If the Titanic is the story of hubris, the Eastland is a tale of unintended consequences.
