oin the men who "go down to the sea in ships". Here you will find Merchantmen, Whalers, Pirates, and Seamen. Captains such as Ahab, Kidd, Blackbeard, Bligh, and others are here as well. Here you will also find those stories of shipwrecks and sadness, of hurricanes and lost treasure, and of mutiny and deserted islands. Both fresh and salt water history are here. From the South Seas to the Great Lakes of America which are like seas unto themselves. From the far northern oceans to the seas at the end of the world in the south. Here then is the history of the waters of the world, and the ships and the men that sailed them. Cast off now, for the tide is high and there be a fresh wind at our backs................
