About the Author

Jacques Marc has spent 25 years diving on and documenting historic shipwrecks around the province of British Columbia. His interest in ship china began in the mid 1980s when he found a Canadian Pacific Steamship cup while diving under an abandoned dock site. To prepare for writing this book, he visited several maritime museums and private collectors to document their holdings.

Reviews

Mr. Marc has provided us with a reference that is authoritative, concise and exhaustive, while at the same time fascinating and fun to travel through. Pacific Coast Ship China is one of the most original and brilliant nautical books to be published this year. Gordon Ghareeb, Steamboat Bill
