Boards foxed, remainder mark on top edge, ink gift note on title page. 1980 Large Hardcover. xvi, 506 pp. From the jacket: Tugboats, the workhorses of the maritime world, are seldom written about, much less pictured. Here, for the first time, are photos and stories of many of the oldest and most famous of the American tugs as well as a representative selection of foreign tugs, especially the larger sea-going vessels that roam the world.

Includes an extensive bibliography, a complete vessel index that reaches way back into the earliest steam tugs and more than 500 photos of tugboats at rest, at work, and their crews.
