Title: Great Story that is little known
Review: As an industry insider (worked for Malcom McLean from 1969 to 1986) its great to see that the story of the development of the container and its amazing economic impact has been recognized. The container, along with the jet plane and advanced communications, are the three major innovations that have made the world a smaller place and permitted globalization for all its benefits (and shortcomings). I would prefer to see more of the business economic facts covered including the economics of a successful container line today. The coverage of United States Lines in Chapter 12 is too superficial and could be expanded. Overall a great attempt to cover the history of the container industry.
Is the review positive or negative?
