Book Reviews of Ghost Ships: Tales of Abandoned, Doomed, and Haunted Vessels

Book Review: Ghost Ships
Summary: 5 Stars

This book obtains the facts of the numorous lost and sunken war, civilian and merchant ships and submarines as well as their lost seamen and those few seamen who lived to discuss their tragedies at sea. It as well obtains the facts of salvaged ships. It continues with an addition of spirits [ghost] of many ships. Each incident in the book of Ghost Ships, was thoroughly examined and studied prior to its editing. Many ships are known for being haunted and only a few sunken and/or lost ships have ever been remembered. However, numerous known ships have been both sank and/or lost however, being that it wasn't for the book "Ghost Ships" they wouldn't receive the knowledge that each haunted, sunken and/or lost ship should along with thier crews. Being that the average person has no belief in spirits, when alone they do and will at times have a change of mind. Spirits not only have been known of, heard of by ear but, have been witnessed by sight to be true as well. There have been numerous ships that sank and are haunted. Many of those ships have been witnessed by Lighthouse workmen. The book Ghost Ships not only is an educational book but, a joyous one to read as well!. I recommend this book to read for both knowledge of the seas and enjoyment.
