Signed Copy . Good dust jacket. Inscribed by Frederick Way, Jr. on title page. Front endpage slightly frayed. Foxing on Dust Jacket. (packets, ship registers, mississippi river region, directories ) NOT AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES.

After the initial release in 1983 of Way’s Packet Directory, 1848–1983, the demand was enormous for a similar treatment of the steam towboats that once populated the Mississippi River System. Captain Frederick Way, Jr., aided by Joseph W. Rutter, gathered together this wealth of information concerning steamboats that shoved river barges laden with coal, petroleum products, chemicals, sand, gravel, and similar bulk commodities from the headwaters of the Ohio River to the jetties of the Mississippi.The steam towboats that performed these services have completely disappeared from the scene, their places having been taken by hundreds of modern diesel-propeller towboats, but this thorough and remarkable reference guide helps preserve their history.
