Book excerpt: The first thing to note about this book is that it is small, only the size of a paperback. The blurb on the inside of the dust jacket declares that this is one of four volumes to be published in a series, Merchant Ships of the World in Color, "a pictorial survey of the merchant ship - ocean liner, tramp steamer, freighter, tanker - and its development during the last one hundred years". The introduction is an essay about the design, appearance and use of merchant ships between 1910 and 1929, "the period covered by this book was one of particular interest and variety...various borrowings from the era of sail still showed in many of the older steamers...The advent of the First World War cut right across the hitherto steady line of evolution...born of the war were many new ideas...actual hull design, the grouping of deckhouses and superstructure, new cargo handling gear and alternative forms of propulsion." The most obvious attraction in the book is the set of 96 color plates, each one illustrating a different ship, "each has been chosen either for her own particular interest or as repesentative of a particular type or hull layout". Each illustration also includes a depiction of the house flag for the shipping line, which brings me to the less obvious, but equally worthwhile, attraction of the text! Each ship has slightly more than a page of text describing its characteristics, and outlining the history of the vessels in that class. The print is small, which is good news in such a small book - plenty of information is packed into a small space! At the back of the book there is a section of diagramatic comparisons, so you can get a better idea about the various design features described. There is also a list of ships illustrated, grouped according to nationality, and another list grouped according to type and trade. Finally, there is a list of all the ships in the book, including all those mentioned in the text.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "super cargo ship" is a post-World War II phenomenon necessitated by the world's growing dependence on greater volumes of resources. This colorful book examines the vast dimensions and varied duties of the giant vessels that ply the oceans today, moving payloads like oil, natural gas, automobiles, water, and livestock from continent to continent. Readers are treated to close-up and inside views of the world's largest tankers, container ships, automobile transporters, Great Lakes cargo ships, "super tugs", and more. Also addressed are the advanced technologies used in construction and operation, continuing efforts to make the vessels safer, and the consequences suffered when accidents do occur. Sidebars examine the daily routines of crewmembers.

Book excerpt: Audisee® eBooks with Audio combine professional narration and sentence highlighting for an engaging read aloud experience! A visually stunning look at innovative and eye-popping measures used to protect ships during World War I. During World War I, British and American ships were painted with bold colors and crazy patterns from bow to stern. Why would anyone put such eye-catching designs on ships? Desperate to protect ships from German torpedo attacks, British lieutenant-commander Norman Wilkinson proposed what became known as dazzle. These stunning patterns and colors were meant to confuse the enemy about a ship's speed and direction. By the end of the war, more than four thousand ships had been painted with these mesmerizing designs. Author Chris Barton and illustrator Victo Ngai vividly bring to life this little-known story of how the unlikely and the improbable became just plain dazzling. "[A] conversational, compelling, and visually arresting story . . ."—starred, Publishers Weekly "Barton's lively text is matched by Ngai's engrossing artwork, which employs dazzle techniques throughout her inventive spreads."—The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books New York Public Library Best Books for Kids Children's Book Committee at Bank Street College Best Children's Book of the Year
