Description

Beautiful and deadly, the Lake Erie islands off the coast of Ohio have seen their fair share of screw ups. The Victory Hotel on South Bass Island at Put-in-Bay was once once the biggest hotel within the nation. However the grand place of dwelling was once reduced to ashes after a spark quickly become a raging, uncontrollable inferno. Reports of smallpox on Pelee Island resulted in mass hysteria and the quarantine of a whole island. On the Toledo Harbor Lighthouse, one light keeper was once frozen in for days together with his deceased colleague until he could make a desperate escape. Wendy Koile chronicles the fiercest calamities to shatter the tranquility of these solitary shores.
