Easternmost of the Great Lakes, Lake Ontario is bordered by both
New York and Ontario. Upon its pristine surface, countless vessels
have sailed, but its bottom depths are littered with the skeletons
of shipwrecks, including Fleetwing, caught and destroyed in one of
the sudden storms that often turn this sea-like lake deadly. Daring
mariners, male and female, have seen their share of peril, and
battles during wars between Britain and the US and Canada have also
been waged here. From Huron canoes to today's "Sunday Sailors" who
venture from shore only during warmer months, local author Susan
Gateley tells some of the lake's most exciting stories.
