Основы морской технической терминологии / Bases of maritime technical terminologyОсновы морской технической терминологии / Bases of maritime technical terminology

Название книги говорит само за себя.
Но книга охватывает на редкость большой круг вопросов, начиная от общего устройства судна, и его составных частей, и заканчивая специфическими вопросами по работе на контейнерах и РО-РО.
Много иллюстраций, фактически каждый термин обозначен рисунком.
Книга полезна для тех моряков кто только начал изучать английский язык.
Эта книга стала прародителем множества других книг.

The Wolf: How One German Raider Terrorized the Allies in the Most Epic Voyage of WWIThe Wolf: How One German Raider Terrorized the Allies in the Most Epic Voyage of WWI

During WWI the Germans realized the value of menacing British commercial shipping lanes in the South Pacific. They sent the raider Wolf, disguised as a merchant ship, to lay mines and sink enemy vessels near English-controlled ports. Nearly 800 captured civilians lived aboard the ship during its fifteen-month voyage. The Germans took prisoners for two reasons: to adhere to ancient maritime traditions forbidding the murder of civilians and to avoid disclosure of the Wolf s secret mission.
