''Letter Concerning Lanes For The Steamers Crossing The Atlantic'' is a book written by Matthew Fontaine Maury in 1855. The book is a detailed account of the author’s suggestions for the establishment of safe and efficient shipping lanes for steamers crossing the Atlantic Ocean. Maury was a renowned American naval officer and oceanographer who is credited with developing the first oceanographic charts and maps. In this book, he draws on his extensive knowledge of ocean currents, winds, and weather patterns to propose a system of lanes that would minimize the risk of collisions and ensure the timely and safe arrival of ships. Maury’s ideas were groundbreaking for their time and helped to revolutionize the shipping industry. The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of oceanography, navigation, or maritime commerce.''This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
