Excerpt from Plan for the Operation of the New American Merchant Marine This message was conveyed to General Pershing, and there is no question but that it heartened him and every soldier and imbued them with the knowledge that the American people Were back of the ship building program, and that the ships would be furnished to help them carry on the work of aiding to win the war. I am sure that it also heartened all the Allies. The men deserving of the credit for this great success are the workers in the shipyards, and the enthusiastic people back of them. Every newspaper, every magazine, every moving - picture thea 'tre, and the 4-minute men organization, consisting of speakers, were used to impress upon the people the need for the construction of ships with the greatest possible speed.

Excerpt from America's Merchant Marine: A Presentation of Its History and Development to Date With Chapters on Related Subjects Ntreats of the development of the merchant marine in a very comprehensive manner, and its chronological presentation of each era is very well covered; it is, in fact, one of the best on the subject I have read in recent years. P. De Ronde, president of the Oriental Navigation Company, comments In such works as this there frequently occur glaring inac curacies in figures and statements, none of which I have been able to find in this. R. A. C Smith, former Dock Com missioner of New York, says: I hope that your interest ing and valuable pamphlet will be widely read and that it will aid in forming an intelligent public Opinion in support Of a sound policy for our American Merchant Marine. The Opinion of H. F arquharson Kerr, president of the Kerr Steamship Company, is thus expressed: 'america's Merchant Marine' seems to me to cover the subject with great and accurate thoroughness, and will, I think, rank as a work of the first importance with a wide and enduring influence. Alfred Gilbert Smith, president of the New York and Cuba Mail Steamship Company, says: The book is, on the whole, the best of its kind that I have ever seen. H. H. Raymond, president of the Clyde Steamship Company, declares this work to be an excellent presentation. A. R. Nicol, president of the Atlantic, Gulf and West Indies Steamship Lines, says: SO far as I know, it is the most comprehensive and up-to date publication of the kind which has yet been issued, and I think it will be regarded as a standard work. We hope that America's Merchant Marine may prove particularly useful to shipping men, exporters and importers as an authentic and timely reference book.

Excerpt from The Men on Deck: Master, Mates and Crew, Their Duties and Responsibilities; A Manual for the American Merchant Service The American who goes to sea to-day will not content himself with minimum requirements. He means to be more than a ten-per cent seaman. War emergencies have sent many men out on blue water who formerly would never have reached the deck or bridge. They know their limitations all we can do is to point out the way. The Author will welcome suggestions and criticisms from officers and men of the Merchant Marine who happen to read the pages of this book. Standard practice at sea is desirable, and such practice can best be achieved by some common ground upon which all minds may meet and reasonably agree. Letters addressed in care of my publishers, D. Van Nos trand Company, 2 5 Park Place, New York, will be forwarded to me and be appreciated. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
