Uncover the mysteries hidden beneath the surface of our beloved Lake Erie. 

Author Jennifer Boresz Engelking explores intriguing little-known tales of Lake Erie, in her new book HIDDEN HISTORY OF LAKE ERIE. She'll share stories of the discovery of rare artifacts from a long-ago shipwreck, sightings of the menacing, mysterious Lake Erie Monster, and a whiskey ship that vanished more than a century ago in the western basin. Jennifer's presentation will be followed by a Q & A session and opportunity to purchase signed/personalized copies of all five of her books.  

Bio: Jennifer Boresz Engelking is the author of five books including: HIDDEN HISTORY OF LAKE ERIE; OUR LADY OF LOURDES NATIONAL SHRINE OF EUCLID; LOST LAKE ERIE; LOST LAKE COUNTY, OHIO; and HIDDEN HISTORY OF LAKE COUNTY, OHIO. She was born and raised in Northeast Ohio.
