THE "SHIPPING WORLD" YEAR BOOK

SOME OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

(Selected from a very large number.)

The Times.-"The information given is wide in scope, and varied in matter dealing with almost every subject of interest connected with trade, commerce and navigation. Thus we find the Board of Trade rules and regulations, engineering notes and formule, with much about freights, ligthhouses, loadline tables, the measurement of ships, pilotage laws, and trade statistics, a complete port and harbour directory of the British Isles, and a digest of the Shipping Acts. About one-third of the volume is devoted to the tariffs of all nations, which are given in full. Much labour and research must have been necessary to compile a manual of this nature, and it appears to be accurate and trustworthy. A copious index and a map, specially designed and prepared for the work, adds largely to its value. In its way, The Shipping World Year Book' may be called the 'Whitaker' of the mercantile marine."

Daily Telegraph.-"A more comprehensive handbook in its special line for the merchant's desk there could scarcely be."

New York Tribune.-"This compact book of upwards of twelve hundred pages, published by The Shipping World, of London, contains an immense amount of information of value to the mariner and shipper."

Pall Mall Gazette.The Shipping World Year Book' would be very much missed if it failed to put in a regular appearance, but fortunately there is no danger of that. The comprehensive retrospect of shipping affairs in 1902 deserves special attention and will repay careful study." Westminster Gazette.-" It comprises within its thousand pages a mass of facts obtained from the most reliable sources available, and for comprehensiveness and accuracy the Year Book' may fairly claim to be without a rival." Daily News.-"One of the special features is the beautifully drawn and coloured map of the world, which is brought up to date by Messrs. Bartholomew."

Engineering." Includes a wealth of data on legislation, navigation, and sea commerce, which makes the volume indispensable to all engaged in maritime affairs."

Liverpool Journal of Commerce.-" Filled from cover to cover with information absolutely indispensable to all engaged in the over-sea commerce of this country, the way in which the vast amount of data are year after year kept fresh and accurate, makes the book one of the very best works of reference in the country."

Liverpool Mercury.-"One cannot possibly exaggerate its value to all connected with trade, commerce and navigation. Within its upwards of 1,200 pages there is a marvellous amount of information, bearing on every manner of subject connected with the mercantile marine. A new feature incorporated is a retrospective view of the past year, covering highly important matters."

Manchester Guardian.-"The book is simply invaluable to all interested in shipping, and is a masterpiece of compilation."

South Wales Daily News. "Major Jones, the capable editor, has anticipated the public attention now being devoted to tariffs, and those of all nations and of the Colonies have been included and revised up to the last hour of publication.”

Law Magazine.-"A shipowner's library would not be complete without a copy of this Year Book,' and we should think that both barristers and solicitors with a shipping practice would find it a handy book of reference."

New York Maritime Register."The present edition of this truly valuable work excels, in variety of matter dealt with and breadth of scope any previous issue."

New York Journal of Commerce.-"Has long since established itself as one of the most compact and useful sources of information as to all matters in which shipping men are most vitally interested."
