On October 31, 1878, the four-masted schooner the J.H. Rutter appeared, flying a distress signal, off a lifesaving station Big Point Sable, Michigan, after having lost its rudder in a severe northwest storm. 212 feet long, The Rutter was a four-sticker, a type of craft now rarely seen, and one of the largest boats of the early day fleet trading on Lake Michigan.As told by father and son pair Richard ("Newbs") and Andrew Newberg, Do You Have the Rutter's Rutter is the incredible true story about this schooner featured on the book's cover, which also traces three generations of family history beginning in 1850s Finland. The heroic feats that occurred on this memorable day resulted in medals, but would the J.H. Rutter ever sail again?
