Liberty Ship
January 18th, 2009Tom, you might want to subscribe to MarHst-L and submit these inquiries
there. That list has many experts who can answer detailed questions
about ancient ships and related topics such as whaling and keelhauling.
Send “subscribe marhst-l [your name]” to listserv@post.queensu.ca. I
subscribed last year but dropped off because the message volume was too
high. That was even before “Titanic” was released.
