Admiralty in a Nutshell

This is a wonderful book that makes good reading for Mariners of all ages who have an intrest in Admiralty/Maritime Law. So,if you are about to pull some gold out of an abandoned shipwreck you better read the chapter on Salvage.

Torts Afloat and More

Professors Maraist and Galligan present an updated version of this entirely useful volume. With clear examples and explanations, the two professors help even the novice navigate the treacherous waters of maritime law.
