Maritime Alexandria by Donald Shomette PDF Summary

Book Description: This book examines how Alexandria's origins and the mosaic of its life was influenced, and at times governed, by its relationship to the Potomac River, the Chesapeake Bay, and the great world beyond. This work is the result of research conducted to assess the potential submerged historic resource base--historic shipwrecks, harbor facilities, and other culturally relevant archaeological features--lying within and adjacent to the waters of the Alexandria waterfront, and buried beneath lands reclaimed from the river during earlier times. The dynamic waterfront development and the evolution of the seafaring industry of this once major maritime entrepôt are presented in a holistic manner, complete with numerous illustrations, maps, and tables.
