Title: Great Insight into the Modern Merchant Marine
Review: Bob Pessek tells the story of the vanished American freighter, the SS Poet. This is a biography of a ship and takes it from iron plates to its last days. In the journey, the reader gets a great tour of the contemporary merchant marine, its mores, and values. There are heartbreaking portrayals of families of the lost men, and overriding search for the truth. I investigated the loss of the Poet as a journalist for a major newspaper and learned there was still much to be learned from this book.
