Great Lakes sailors often talk about the "Witch of November," autumn gales typical for that month that make the final trips of the season dangerous for freighters and other vessels. In November of 1913, the witch did her worst - the most deadly storm in the history of the Great Lakes, pulling 12 ships to the bottom of lakes Superior, Huron, Michigan and Erie and killing more than 250 people. This is the story of what has come to be called "The White Hurricane."
