On this episode of Unbound: A Collection of Indiana Stories, Casey and Regan are hitting the high seas... or the Great Lakes. First Regan tells us about the New Orleans, one of the first steams ships to navigate up and down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. Then Casey tells the tragic tale of the Muskegon and J.D. Marshall which helped haul sand to create Chicago’s lakeshore.
