Shipping has been the international business par excellence in many
national economies, one that preceded trends in other, more highly
visible sectors of international economic activity. Nevertheless,
in both business or economic history, shipping has remained
relatively overlooked. That gap is filled by this exploration of
the evolution of European shipping through the study of two Greek
shipping firms. They provide a prime example of the regional
European maritime businesses that evolved to serve Europe's
international trade and, eventually, the global economy. By the end
of the twentieth century, Greeks owned more ships than any other
nationality. The story of the Vagliano brothers traces the
transformation of Greek shipping from local shipping and trading to
international shipping and ship management, while the case of
Aristotle Onassis reveals how international shipping was
transformed into a global business.
