Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Seamanship An attempt is made, in the following pages, to cover a wider field than that covered by most of the existing works on Seamanship. The admirable treatises of Luce, Nares, and Alston, originating in the days when seamanship was almost wholly concerned with the fitting and handling of vessels under sail, have preserved through later editions the general characteristics which they naturally assumed in the beginning. These treatises will never be out of date until the time, still far in the future, when sails shall have been entirely driven out by steam. It will hardly be denied, however, that the Steamer has long since established its claim to consideration in Seamanship, and that there is room for a work in which this claim shall be more fully recognized than in the treatises above referred to. The excellent work of Captains Todd and Whall, "Practical Seamanship for the Merchant Service," deals more fully than either of its predecessors with the handling of steamers; but its point of view is, as its name implies, primarily and almost exclusively that of die Merchant Service. Shortly after the present work was begun, a circular letter was addressed to officers of the merchant service and extensively circulated through the Branch Hydrographic Offices at New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Norfolk, requesting the views oi the officers addressed, upon the following subjects: I. Taking a Disabled Vessel in Tow in Bad Weather. II. Rescuing the Crew of a Wreck in Bad Weather. III. Rescuing a Man Overt Kard. IV. Lying-to in a Gale. V. The Stowage and Handling of Boats. VI. Man uvring Single-screw and Twin-screw Vessels. VII. Floating a Stranded Vessel. VIII. Handling Steamers around a Dock.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Elementary Seamanship A new Elementary Manual of Seamanship may perhaps appear, at first sight, superfluous. Its production has been decided on by the Author because of his conviction that none of the many excellent works extant sufficiently meet the needs Of Apprentices and Junior Officers in the Mercantile Marine. This little work is an introductory text - book for beginners; it does not pretend to complete their nautical education, nor in any sense to supersede that practical training in the details of their profession, an intimate acquaintance with which is so unattainable, except in the course of life on board ship.

It has been prepared from notes collected by me while attached to the U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, as Instructor in Naval Tactics and Seamanship. Having left the greater part of my MSS, in the hands of the enemy, I am compelled to publish this work in an incomplete form - at some future day I hope to issue it in a more creditable manner. The Part on Harbor Routine, and the plan of Part III, is somewhat new, and suggested itself to me while employed in teaching at the U.S. Naval Academy. Questions are asked and the Answers omitted in order to cause the Student to think; and to give the Instructor an opportunity of explaining the philosophy of Seamanship and Naval Discipline.
