SWEETWATER SAILORS - The Rest of the Story (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book also tells the stories of the unusual, non-typical sailors on the Great Lakes, such as those in marine construction and passenger excursion captains. These types of sailors are away from home just as much as the cargo ship and carferry sailors are, but they are never seen by the general public.

Sweetwater Sailors - The Rest of the Story starts by spotlighting two engineers who are women. These engineers have earned the respect of their shipmates by being tough and highly skilled at their jobs, without losing their feminity. And not to be forgotten or overlooked are stories from some of the crew's most essential members - the cooks. Cooks are key to the survival of sailors onboard ships as they keep the ships' crews fed and happy. I interviewed two women and a man for this book, and I'm sure you will find their stories quite captivating.

I am hopeful that readers of this second book will gain a greater understanding of sailors and the work they do aboard our nation's boats and ships, the sacrifices they and their spouses and families make in doing so, and, as a result, gain a deeper respect for them while being thoroughly entertained by their stories.
