Feeding the Furnaces: A History of Marquette Ore Dock No. 6 informs the reader of the long and varied human history of the architectural wonder on Lake Superior known as the Ore Dock No. 6. An exciting history full of economic prosperity coupled with death and tragedy. It is easy to see how the monumental structure is still a major tourist attraction nearly a century later. From the construction workers who erected the dock during the Great Depression, to the roaring steam engines hauling ore, this fascinating story is a must read.
