May I also suggest Frederick Stonehouse (Maritime Historian, author and lecturer) who has authored over 30 books on maritime history – One of his books was called:
The Wreak of the Edmund Fitzgerald;” or Joel Stone, Senior Curator of the Detroit Historical Society. Both are great speakers.

Maritime historian James Spurr did a great job for us on the Edmund Fitzgerald shipwreck. ( He’s also done war of 1812 in the Great Lakes). He is an engaging
speaker and his presentation always draws lots of folks, especially men. His email is
