Slight shelf wear to edge of D/J. some light foxing to edgesHistory, both past and current, shows that when in trouble at sea some perish under conditions far less severe that those under which others - better prepared, better trained, better equipped, or psychologically stronger - have survived. Against this background, the authors have compiled this remarkable book, an anthology of first-person accounts of man's ability - or inability - to survive at sea. The contributions cover the depositions of survivors of collisions, fires, torpedoings, aircraft crashes, and yacht sinkings, make shortly after rescue from sea. There are accounts of experiences on rafts, in lifeboats, and in the sea, from the tropics to the Arctic Ocean, and firsthand observations from the logbooks and writings of such people as Chichester, Knox-Johnson, Shackleton, and John Ridgway and Chay Blyth. The material is presented in sequence, from preparation against shipwreck, through survival conditions of exposure, to descriptions of rescues and treatment after rescue. With each section the authors draw conclusions and make practical suggestions. Thus an anthology which makes compelling reading in itself becomes also a necessary and authoritiative handbook of survival for all whose work - or leisure - put them at them at any time at the mercy of the sea.

Dennison spent his career studying the Appalachians; teaching and mentoring his students and professional colleagues; publishing papers; leading field trips; and presenting ideas at regional, national, and international conferences. This volume is a collection of papers contributed by former students and colleagues to honor his memory. Topics include stratigraphy and paleontology ranging in age from Ordovician to Mississippian in Kentucky, New York, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia; Devonian airfall tephras throughout the eastern United States; a Devonian lonestone; a Middle Eocene bentonite in North Carolina and its relationship to a volcanic swarm in western Virginia; and a 3D model of a ductile duplex in northwestern Georgia. The stratigraphic and geologic diversity of the papers reflects Dennison's many interests and collaborative relationships.' Contents: Dedication / Katharine Lee Avary; Kenneth O. Hasson; Richard J.
