description: It is still there.... Just south of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, in a fallow wheatfield stands the the ship Sontianen. It is as real a paradox as ever there was; as real as its builder, Tom Sukanen.It began the thirties.... In the heart of the Canadian dustbowl, more than a thousand miles from the nearest tidewater, Tom Sukanen is building himself a ship--a great, deep-keeled, ocean-going, steel-sheathed cargo steamer. Not untypically; Sukanen flatly refuses to explain his extraordinary undertaking to anyone.
