A Good Ship and Crew Well Seasoned: The Fitzgerald and Her Legacy

"A Good Ship and Crew Well Seasoned: The Fitzgerald and Her Legacy" is a documentary film produced by the National Museum of the Great Lakes and Allied Communications, Inc. The film explores the less documented and overlooked history of the Fitzgerald and her crew before their tragic loss through unpublished manuscript material and photographs while at the same time reflecting on the impact of their loss on family, friends, and colleagues in the maritime community. The film takes a refreshing break from those who claim the authority to speak on the causes of her loss in order to direct more time to those important historical questions, not yet asked.
