General and ProfessionalRecenzii
'This book is intended primarily for candidates for Board of Trade certificates of competency but such is the detail that while being equally suitable for the beginner, it is also a reference work for experienced seamen, and the layout and style of text make it suitable for correspondence course work where practical experience can be allied to the theoretical approach. All facets of seamanship from the anchor to damage control are dealt with and the chapters on practical ship handling, stranding and beaching, towing, emergencies and the safety of navigation are particularly noteworthy. This book is an excellent and responsible contribution to the nautical field and must have a tremendous appeal to all grades of seamen.’
