Reviews

War es nur eine Frage der Zeit, bis sich ein renommierter Schifffahrtshistoriker der Aufgabe stellte, nicht nur die Geschichte des Schiffes für eine breitere Öffentlichkeit zugänglich zu machen, sondern diese auch in den politisch-wirtschaftlichen Kontext zu stellen. Dazu kommen ausführliche Erläuterungen zu den damals üblichen Segelschiffen, zum Wetter und den daraus resultierenden Segelstellungen, wann Reffs eingebunden wurden usw. It was only a matter of time before a renowned shipping historian took on the task of not only making the ship's history accessible to a broader public, but also placing it in the political and economic context. There are also detailed explanations of the sailing ships that were common at the time, the weather and the resulting sail positions, when reefs were integrated, etc. * PIEKFALL *
