Cortez Last Tramp

Résumé du livre

This is the second book in a two-book series and an account of three voyages in the last days of conventional breakbulk cargo ships-the so-called "boom ships" and an episode in the career of a merchant mariner. Captain Bruce Fisher, second mate then, encounters all manner of things nautical-the good, the bad and the "did that really happen?" Fisher sets out from the west coast on the first of three voyages aboard the venerable freighter Cortez, a so-called "tramp ship," to circumnavigate the globe.
