The information on the site is an accumulation of 15-years of research on ships, captains, passengers, ports and goods moving around the world during the largest world migration in history.

We appreciate your consideration.

Thank you.

Kindle DX
We resisted switching to Kindle because we like the smell and feel of books. However, when travelling, it is difficult to carry 5-6-7 books . . .
you know, the novels about the country you are visiting, along with guidebooks for various areas.

With more than 400,000++ books available on Kindle, we have reconsidered. Kindle comes in Global Wireless and U.S. Wireless. Prices start at $260. This is a superb gift item.

Grimsby: The Greatest Fishing Port in the World.

To William H. Aspinwall, of the City of New York:

My Dear Sir: In the years 1849 and 1850, whilst on a visit to California, I executed careful surveys of the Bay of San Francisco, and the intermediate expanse of waters, to the head of ship navigation on the Sacramento River, at the request of many enterprising citizens of the State . . . I have decided to inscribe the charts to you . . . Most cordially,

CADWALADER RINGGOLD
