Item description from seller

reprint 1873 edition London, hardcover with dust jacket, 89 pages + plates. Samuel Plimsoll's "Our Seamen: An Appeal" exposes the dangerous practices in the shipping industry, including overloading ships, undermanning, and fraudulent insurance claims, which led to unnecessary loss of life at sea. The book, written with genuine sentiment and concern for the welfare of sailors, became a catalyst for maritime safety reforms and ultimately led to the implementation of the Plimsoll line, a safety measure that became law two years after the book's publication ISBN 0859371565 In very good condition.
