Excerpt from The Ocean Carrier: A History and Analysis of the Service and a Discussion of the Rates of Ocean Transportation This book is the outgrowth of the study of three questions - the development of line traffic, the combinations among carriers to control rates, and the combination of steamship lines and railways.
