BLOOD ON BROWN WATER
 |
| A Typical Two Watch System American Commercial Vessel |
National
Mariners Association announces the Release of "BLOOD
ON BROWN WATER".
The
National Mariners Association (NMA) long noted for lengthy documented
and foot-noted reports on maritime occupational safety and health
issues, especially in the inland towing and offshore workboat
industries, has released its first publication intended for the
general public. Their publisher Marine Education Textbooks (MET) of
Houma, LA, has long produced Coast Guard license exam-prep textbooks,
the American Admiralty Bureau's series on marine legal topics, and
similar works of a technical maritime nature. This is MET's first
venture into a general interest publication though the subject is
maritime. BLOOD
ON BROWN WATER
is the story of personal injury and ill health caused by working
conditions under the two-watch system in use throughout the industry
told in language free of technical jargon and legal citations
intended to alert the general American public to working conditions
in certain sectors of the maritime industry that the book describes
as "Third World."
The
opening statement in the book is the expressed hope that BLOOD
ON BROWN WATER
will result for the mariner working on certain commercial vessels of
less than the 1,600-ton range the same type of protective movement
that Richard Henry Dana's "TWO
YEARS BEFORE THE MAST”
inspired for 19th.
century merchant seamen.
74p.
Coil bound. 8½x11.” $15.80 +S&H.
