A lovely look at the unique character of southern ports. October 23, 1998 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I love this book. It looks at ports in each of our southern states. Each chapter looks at one of our ports through text and lovely photographs. The Port of New Orleans for examples takes us into the cloud of the rich aroma coffee, as it is unloaded at the port. The port is explored through several other angles also, from tugs, to excursion vessels, Coast Guard officials and the like. We tag along with the author and the photographer on a journey that few of us could ever make. Reading this beautiful book makes us wish we could have been part of the writing team. And then they have to also talk about the places that they ate. My mouth even watered, an unforseen side effect.
