Synopsis:

This fascinating book features 100 historical photographs depicting the complex, often deeply passionate relationships of mariners with their vessels and the sea. Introduced by the preeminent photographic critic of our time, each photograph chronicles a fragment of the mariner's experience over the past 200 years.


Review:

"[The] commentaries are short, chiseled and dense with fact. The pictures range from christenings to shipwrecks, from war journalism to pleasure-boat advertisements, and Benson finds fascination in them all."

Kenneth Baker, San Francisco Chronicle Book Review, 11/30/1997
