Tall Ships in the Zenith City
Description:
When Duluththe Zenith City of the Unsalted Seasfirst became a city in 1870, two- and three-masted schooners commonly docked in her harborbut steam-powered freighters and ore boats replaced most sailing vessels by 1900. The age of sail returns to Duluth as reconstructed historic ships and replica vessels sail from around the globe to take part in the Zenith Citys semi-annual Tall Ships Duluth festival, once again filling the harbor with the sound of flapping canvas and creaking ropes. Noted Duluth photographer Dennis OHara has captured these maritime celebrations with his camera. Inside you will find: more than 75 photos of tall ships in Duluth & on Lake Superior from 2008 to 2011; a history of tall ships on Lake Superior from 1734 to 2013; and bios of each ship that has participated in Tall Ships Duluth from 2008 to 2013.
