Review:

"...this new edition provides a comprehensive, knowledgeable, yet practical resource...

Lawyers and academics alike are usually more familiar with mortgages, and other security interests, taken over land. This book is illuminating in comparing and contrasting the different challenges faced in constructing a security framework over a moveable chattel whose operation spans the globe and is intimately connected with international trade.

All in all, this book is a valuable addition to many book shelves...the expertise of the authors in the law governing ship mortgages is evident on every page."
