Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Heritage of Tyre To the memory of John Willis Griffiths, whose genius revolutionized the science of merchant shipbuilding and naval architecture and enthroned the United States as Mistress of the Seas. From his poet´s brow the peerless American clipper leaped full blown to make a starred banner the talisman of a world´s commerce. The twin and triple-screw greyhounds of to-day are the posthumous children of his dreams. Ocean conqueror by sail and by steam, he sleeps as he died, unhonored and unsung - forgotten by a heedless people even as they have forgotten the sea heritage through which they achieved their national existence.
