"This is a colorful study, Rogers examines how press gangs actually operated, the tricks they employed, and the tactics men used to escape their clutches....While occasionally Rogers repeats material in different chapters, he is careful to present a balanced picture, using statistics and anecdotal evidence to good effect."
