Covering over 200 years of maritime history, from the Boston Tea Party to the aftermath of the Exxon Valdez, this book recounts the growth and decline of what twice became the world's most powerful maritime fleet. It includes daring ocean rescues, sea battles and financial gambles that won or lost millions, and recalls the growing stress among diverse forces of merchants, ship owners, seafarers and federal agencies. The book features the daring sealift to Europe during World War II. John A. Butler is the author of "Strike Able-Peter: The Stranding and Salvage of the USS Missouri".
