DCMM Maritime Speaker Series: Historical Women Around the Great Lakes

January 24, 2022 by Laurel Ciohon

Sturgeon Bay, Wis. (January 24, 2022) – The DCMM Maritime Speaker Series invites you to ask questions and engage in discussion with Dr. Victoria Brehm, author of Great Lakes maritime and Native literatures, during February 3’s ONLINE-ONLY presentation at 7 p.m.

Victoria’s books include The Women’s Great Lakes Reader, named “One of Fifty Essential Books for Michigan History,”; Star Songs and Water Spirits, the first collection of lakes’ Native literature, described by Lake Superior Magazine as “A masterwork and an accumulated treasure,”; and White Squall: Sailing the Great Lakes, which one reviewer experienced as “Inherently fascinating, impressively informative, exceptionally well written, organized and presented….”

To order copies of Brehm’s books, visit: LadySlipperPress.org.

Dr. Brehm lives on her family’s sesquicentennial farm in northwest lower Michigan.
