Glory of the Seas (The American maritime library)

By Michael Jay Mjelde

Book Overview

A marvelously detailed and illustrated book about the wonderfully-named Glory of the Seas -- built in 1869, the exciting grain runs between Sydney and San Francisco, bucking dirty weather off Cape Horn, plying the Atlantic to England; the men who sailed her, owners, brokers, charterers. Good human interest stories.
