In November, 1781, the captain of the slave ship Zong ordered that some 150 Africans be murdered by drowning so that the ship's owners could collect insurance monies. Relying entirely on the words of the legal decision Gregson vs Gilbert-the only extant public document related to the massacre of these African slaves-Zong! tells the story that cannot be told yet must be told. Equal parts song, moan, shout, oath, ululation, curse, and chant, Zong! excavates the legal text. Memory, history, and law collide and metamorphose into the poetics of the fragment. Through the innovative use of fugal and counterpointed repetition, Zong! becomes an anti-narrative lament that stretches the boundaries of the poetic form, haunting the spaces of forgetting and mourning the forgotten.

The commercial maritime sector is highly vulnerable to theft and piracy, and presents a probable target for a major terrorist attack. The best way to prevent losses is to apply lessons learned in another arena--the struggle to curb drug smuggling. This effort has shown that successes can be achieved when effective and comprehensive security measures and procedures are implemented at key initial links in the cargo supply chain. The integrity and security of whole system are improved when efforts are focused at the primary ""choke point"" - the load seaports and their ships. This book

The Sixty Miler is a blend of memoir, biography, and maritime history. Author Norma Sim weaves together the life of her husband William with the story of the Birchgrove Park, one of the fleet of coal-carrying ships that sailed between Newcastle and Sydney since the early 1800s. Both man and ship were from Aberdeenshire, both sailed the globe during the 1940s and 1950s, and in 1956 their paths would ultimately cross in tragic circumstances. Interwoven with these storylines are the histories of many other sixty milers that plied the treacherous coasts of New South Wales.
