Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the sorry state of Americaâs Merchant Marines and calls for an American shipping fleet to safeguard the nation's commerce and support its global power. The author traces the history of the Merchant Marine, looking back to the Napoleonic Wars when America led the worl…d in seafaring commerce to the present where it controls less than 9% of its own overseas trade. He details failed attempts to rebuild the American Merchant Marine through the 19th and early 20th centuries due to foreign competition, particularly from Great Britain, and the influence of the powerful foreign âshipping poolâ on American commerce. The author argues that the lack of American-owned ships leaves the country vulnerable, as wartime disruptions in shipping are jeopardizing American trade and military readiness. This timely book reveals the history of this issue and underscores the urgent need for America to regain its sea power.
