On Nov. 10, 1975, Lake Superior, the “Graveyard of the Great Lakes,” took its most infamous victim, the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald. With the 49th anniversary of the wreck happening over a week ago, it feels like a good time to write about what happened on that fateful night along with the song that carries on the legacy of the great ship and crew. Gordon Lightfoot’s song “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” tells the story of the ship’s demise.
