Illustrations of Signal Flags and Pennants. Illustrations photographs diagrams. Appendix A-F. Index. Errata slip present. Cover has some wear and soiling. A practical and comprehensive approach to seamanship. One reference to rely on for a complete introduction to the essentials of sailing and seamanship. Bart Dunbar received his B.A. from Harvard University in Economics and attended graduate studies in International Relations at American University in Washington D.C. Prior to founding Bowen's Wharf he served nine years as an officer in the U.S. Navy. While in the Navy he was involved in the formation of six navy sailing associations ran the Navy's basic seamanship program at the Naval Academy in Annapolis and co-authored the Navy's basic seamanship book Sail and Power. Seamanship is the art of operating a ship or boat. It involves topics and development of specialized skills including: navigation and international maritime law; weather meteorology and forecasting; watchkeeping; ship-handling and small boat handling; operation of deck equipment anchors and cables; ropework and line handling; communications; sailing; engines; execution of evolutions such as towing; cargo handling equipment dangerous cargoes and cargo storage; dealing with emergencies; survival at sea and search and rescue; and fire fighting. The degree of knowledge needed within these areas is dependent upon the nature of the work and the type of vessel employed by a mariner. A fundamental skill of professional seamanship is being able to maneuver a vessel with accuracy and precision. Unlike vehicles on land a ship afloat is subject to the movements of the air around it and the water in which it floats. Another complicating factor is the mass of a ship that has to be accounted for when stopping and starting. Ship-handling is about arriving and departing a berth or buoy maneuvering in confined channels and harbors and in proximity to other ships whilst at all times navigating safely. Two other types of operations berthing alongside another ship and replenishment at sea are occasionally included. A key ability for a ship-handler is a good understanding of how the wind tide and swell the passage of other vessels as well as the shape of the seabed will affect a vessel's movement which together with an understanding of a specific vessel's performance should allow that vessel a safe passage.

McBrayer and three other U.S. Marine officers were crowded onto a Japanese train in China leaving the POW camp at Kiangwan and headed for a ship that would transport them to Japan. Since their imprisonment in December 1941 the four men had continuously plotted their escape waiting for the opportune moment to put their plan into action. The crowded boxcar provided them with such an opportunity. As darkness descended the four Marines put their plan into action removing the two rusty bars and strands of barbed wire covering the boxcar's window and jumping out into the Chinese countryside. This is the gripping story of the author's imprisonment in China his daring escape from the POW train the dangerous passage through the country with the help of Chinese Communist guerillas and his return to the United States 61 days after his escape." ; ex-library stamps ; no dustjacket ; VG McFarland & Co., Jefferson, N.C., ©1995 hardcover
