Description: According to the preface, "this book was written to describe the business side of a commercial enterprise whose field is the entire civilized world. Historically, the theory and knowledge of shipping management, as distinguished from the practical skills of seamanship, have been transmitted from one generation to the next by word of mouth. Is the aim, in preparing this analysis of the principles of the business of commercial shipping, to describe that which transpires in the various divisions of a ship owning and operating organization." This is a really interesting book that explains the business of shipping from over 40 years ago! The book itself is in good condition. There is no writing in the book. The cover has some bumps and wear. There is the remnants of a price sticker on the top left of the book and there is a slight rip in the fabric of the cover near the spine. Please see pictures for details. If you like vintage books, vintage technical books, vintage engineering books, vintage sailing books and more Please check out my store.
