    Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The Lantern of the Sea is an illustrated picture book about love, duty, and the light that holds between a parent and child across distance.When a Lantern Keeper must answer the sea's call, he places his lantern in his young son's hands and tells him it carries the part of him that stays. Through seasons and storms, the boy learns to tend that light, and in doing so, discovers that love which serves the world never truly leaves it.Written in poetic, unhurried prose and illustrated with rare warmth, the book speaks to children navigating a parent's absence with steadiness rather than false comfort. It does not explain distance away. It gives families a shared language to hold it.A story for families where a parent goes to sea, to a long posting, or to any work that calls them far from home. For children aged 4 to 8, and for anyone who has ever waited for someone to come home.A Sea Lantern title. Jeong, Si-Eun (ilustrador).…

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Inside the Floating City offers a rare, lived perspective on one of the world's most complex working environments: the modern cruise ship. Drawing on more than fifteen years at sea, having risen to senior officer, Vega Mare reveals how a closed, constantly moving world thinks, adapts, and sustains itself far from land.Blending narrative nonfiction with clear-eyed analysis, Mare explores how thousands of people create order, culture, and meaning in a place without stillness. Through firsthand accounts, readers witness the operational rhythms of ship life - how decisions are made, how teams function under pressure, and how a floating city maintains safety, continuity, and emotional balance while traveling the world.Alongside its literary and sociological depth, the book also serves as a practical, insider guide for those considering a career at sea. Mare outlines how the hiring process works, what new crew can expect before boarding, how contracts, pay, and scheduling operate, and how to navigate the challenges of health, endurance, hierarchy, and adaptation. Few resources offer such a detailed, experience-based blueprint of crew life - from the first day on board to the disorienting feeling of returning home.Inside the Floating City will appeal to readers of immersive nonfiction, maritime literature, sociology of work, and hospitality studies, as well as to aspiring crew members seeking an authentic understanding of ship life. Both accessible and deeply observed, it serves as a compelling narrative for general readers and a valuable resource for libraries, maritime academies, career counselors, and programs focused on organizational culture, leadership, and human behavior.Key Selling PointsA rare insider account of more than fifteen years at sea aboard major cruise ships, offering unparalleled access to a closed and constantly moving world.Blends narrative nonfiction with organizational insight, making it valuable for readers of memoir as well as students of leadership, hospitality, and sociology.Provides a complete blueprint for aspiring crew members, including hiring processes, contracts, pay systems, health challenges, safety culture, and life onboard from first day to coming home.Explores themes of endurance, identity, teamwork, and culture within one of the most diverse and disciplined workforces in the world.Ideal for libraries, maritime academies, travel programs, and workforce-development collections, bridging personal narrative with practical professional guidance.
