About This Item
Mariners Museum, 1997. Trade paperback. Like New. This fascinating book features 100 historical photographs selected, introduced, and explained by two preeminent figures in photography. Each photograph chronicles a fragment of the mariner's experience--shipbuilding, commercial fishing and whaling, deep-sea diving, naval encounters, and more."Each of these beautiful, informative and idiosyncratic photographs must be savored. When juxtaposed with Benson's extended captions, however, they become focal points through which readers can assess the relationship of our humanity to the rationalizations of our seafaring. . . . A moving testimonial to the exaltation and apprehension of human interaction with the sea. In fishermen's parlance, it's a keeper.
