A superbly written adventure book on freshwater sailing.

Superbly written, The Teeth Of The Northeaster: A Solo Voyage On Lake Superior recounts Bree's sojourn across the largest body of freshwater in the world. Bree interweaves tales of the legends and the history of this vast watery region with his own particular adventures, meeting and talking with veteran sailors, boat builders, shopkeepers, and fishermen. Call Of The North Wind and In The Teeth Of The Northeaster are fascinating, informative, entertaining, and totally engaging books that are a "must" for anyone who has ever sailed Lake Superior -- or wanted to.
