Excerpt from Ships' Boats: Their Qualities, Construction, Equipment, and Launching Appliances
Permission was given the Author, during the period of his association with the Marine Department of the Board of Trade, to proceed with the publication of this text-book; but in fairness to the officials of that Department it should be stated that they have not had the opportunity to express an opinion on the subject-matter previous to publication, owing to professional duties taking me to the United States of America.
All matters of controversy have been carefully avoided; the sole purpose in writing the treatise being to circulate information with the object of intensifying the interest of its readers in the important subject of the equipment of life saving appliances ou cargo and passenger vessels.
