Michigan's Venace by Daniel F. Harrison Book Cover.

Michigan’s Venice, with Author Daniel Harrison

Tuesday, November 18 at 7 PM

Few maritime landscapes in the Great Lakes remain so deeply and clearly inscribed by successive cultures as the St. Clair system— a river, delta, and lake found between Lake Huron and the Detroit River. Daniel Harrison, author of Michigan’s Venice: The Transformation of the St. Clair Maritime Landscape, 1640–2000, joins us to discuss how its inhabitants navigated, claimed, and reshaped the region.

Daniel F. Harrison, PhD, is a maritime archaeologist, sailor, and diver specializing in the Great Lakes region. Recently retired from a forty-year career as an academic librarian, he has had his research in maritime archaeology published in peer-reviewed journals including Historical Archaeology, Ethnohistory, and Michigan Historical Review.
