Abstract
Here is a book that will delight all who love the Great Lakes and wish to know more about them. Among the numerous books available on the Great Lakes, Charting the Inland Seas is the first exhaustive history of the U. S. Lake Survey. This was the governmental agency in charge of overseeing the Great Lakes from 1841 to its demise in 1976 when it became a part of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
