The holiday tradition began a century ago. A ship loaded down with freshly cut pine trees would dock along Chicago's waterfront while the captain jovially welcomes families aboard to select a tree for Christmas. This one-hour Storm Stories special explains how The Christmas Tree Ship and its captain became a part of holiday lore.
