Frank Barcus, well known
Detroit architect, presently a
member of the staff of the De-
troit City Plan Commission, is
being widely acclaimed this
week for his sensational book,
"Freshwater Fury," published
by Wayne State University
Press.
"Freshwater Fury" is- the
story of the Black Sunday storm
on the Great Lakes, on Nov. 9,
1913, when many ships were
destroyed and hundreds of lives
were lost.
The survivors had tragic
stories to tell. Barcus met many
of them, got their stories and
incorporated their impressions
in his deeply moving stories of
the worst disaster in the his-
tory of Great Lakes shipping.
For more than 20 years, Bar-
cus had been gathering the in-
formation about the tragic day,
the history of whose happen-
ings is being perpetuated in his
remarkably well written book.

An able artist, Barcus has
drawn the maps and diagrams

that illustrate his book and

thereby has added significant-
ly toward an understanding

Dedicating his book to the
memory of the 251 sailors who
died while on duty during. the
1913 Great Storm, Barcus has
gone. into great detail to deline-
ate the tragedy portrayed in
"Freshwater Fury." He de-
scribes all the vessels that were
involved, he relates the stories
of the captains and the °crews
who were caught in the storm.
George W. Stark, Detroit his-
toriographer, in a foreword to
the book, commends it for its
