4.0 out of 5 stars
OK book., February 3, 2009
This Book is the only APL(American President Lines LTD) Book Out there, it only covers up until 1984 as the name implies(around the time it was published) The book is pretty good and offers the read background on this once mighty American Company(Now sadly part of A Singapore Owned Co.-Human Rights Violator) and like Sea-Land A Giant that once was bigger than the foreign guys.From the time of The American Mail lines, to the governments ownership stake at one point in history to the Ships named each one "President". Good Book.
