Originally published in 1942 and reisued as a commemorative edition to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of its publisher, (this is) not only fascinating but most informative and whilst a number of things have changed, one thing that hasn't changed -- and never will -- is the sea itself....What gives credibility to the book is that one of the joint authors ... was an officer on the Robin Moor, the first American vessel sunk by a Nazi torpedo .... Lessons could certainly be learned from this experience and many of those lessons are still valid today. -- Safety at SeaA perfect christening gift for the new boat owner
