Useful introduction to the Shipping Industry
This book is a great way of introducing yourself to the Shipping Industry. It outlines all the basic terms within the framework of a story. As a piece of fiction however it is a terribly written book. Nevertheless worth a read if you are new to the industry.

I am so glad that I have stumbled on this book
I have come across this book by an accident, almost the same way the main character has come across the shipping industry. As an MBA student, I loved the way the business management and financial concepts are applied to the shipping industry in a vivid and dramatic setting. The only minor downside is some spelling mistakes and the names of the characters mixed up - Robert and John. All summed up, my rating is big shiny five stars.

McCleery's 3-part series introduces the reader to several aspects of shipping finance. It presents a friendly face while describing a tough, volatile business that investors often lose a lot of money in. It's an excellent starting read for someone who is beginning to invest in shipping companies.
