SHIPMASTERS OF CAPE COD

摘要

An oldie but a goodie. This is a paperback reprint of a book first published in 1935 and then re-issued by the same author and publisher in 1963. Like its subject, it has stood the test of time. For more than two centuries, until just before the Second World War, New England, comprising the north-eastern states of the United States of America, was a hot bed of maritime activity. It inspired considerable technical innovation and similar adventurousness in voyaging.
