The 100-page collection of travel writing is non-fiction and unuique. There are first-hand narratives of hitchhiking alone through East Africa, of voyages with untested crews across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, of storms, knife and shark attacks, robberies and wrecks. Aside from travel writing, they are fiction. - Juvenilia is by definition a retrospective of someone's early work, to discern not so much quality as direction. This writing is not meant to impress, but it is hoped that teens today might empathize with some of the anger, the questioning of authority, and the rebelliousness - imaginary, idealized - herein. Umbrae Papilionis means shadows of the butterflies I hoped later to write. I was a 17-year-old junior at St. George's School in Newport, RI. I was not good in spring sports and took advantage of the school's little-known policy of producing a special project instead Z. (for Zarathustra) was overseen on my senior year by Mrs. Janet Buell. The title derives from my study of and flirtation with Persian and non-Judeo-Christian religions, and a featured essay. Shorts is by far the loudest scream this author has put to paper. My freshman year at 15,000-student Boston College was highly tumultuous and wrenchingly free. Shorts reflects my Beatnik bent. The collections features numerous maps and hundreds of illustrations, many of them penned during the authors teen years. The ragged layout is intentional, as each of thesebooks were hand made, often through conniving administrators for the use of equipment. Eric T.

Written in fulfillment of a Masters in Marine Affairs Degree at the University of Rhode Island in 2005, this is the harrowing tale of some 70 vessels over the past 30 years who have found themselves distressed at sea and begged coastal states for a safe place to stabilize their problems. As this unique research points out, more often than not they were turned away and in the case of the Prestige in 2002, with disastrous results which polluted the coastlines of three countries, cost over US$5 billion, and indirectly led to the overthrow of the Spanish government. With careful analysis of the salvors point of view and with a windward eye on the environment, this study brings the reader through step-by-step analyses and methodologies through which to debunk or confirm assumptions. The research and listings of the 70 or so casualties themselves make harrowing reading, the analysis sections aret more academic, and the bibliography provides for extensive further research. This research has been requested by and supplied to all parties in the litigation between the Spanish government, the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), the Bahamas Maritime Authority, and their attorneys in the U.S. and Europe. Eric Wiberg is qualified as a maritime lawyer and a member of the Maritime Law Association of the US and the American Salvage Association. A licensed captain, he has over 80,000 nautical miles of seagoing and command experience. For three years he hepled commercially operate a fleet of tankers for the firm which lost the Braer. He has written several books about travel and naval history. A citizen of the US and Sweden, he grew up in Bahamas and lives with his wife and son in Connecticut.
